Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo..........

I went to my children's back to school night to meet their teachers and get an overview of school shit. Same old bullshit until one teacher had a glass jar filled with M&M?SŪ and we had to guess how many were in there. The winner was an obese woman. I was like great she'll probably just save them or use them as a treat. Well, she made a comment that made heads turn. She said, "I'm gonna give it to the kids as a snack before they go to bed."
Turns out that all of her kids are obese and bring soda to lunch.

I don't think she consciously knows that she is killing her kids or the very least making them ill. Taxing soda would not even address the obesity problem we have in the United States.

A parent who is obese and has children who are obese should be required to go to a some kind of "AA" meeting. This meeting should educate them on foods that are healthy and what to feed a growing child. Obesity seems like a cycle because obese people hang out with other obese people.
