I am sure there will be another study soon on the effects of the new Xbox 360 on homework. You know, just to be sure...

Kids sitting on their rear playing video games rather than playing outside is 99% of the problem, parents who let them are .99% and bake sales are .001%

"they really think we're THAT STUPID in the media??"

Yup, and there's a reason for that:

They themselves are stupid, therefore they assume we are, too!

Bake Sales make kids fat.
The sky is blue.

Where are the researchers with any common sense? Bake sales don't make people obese. Putting vending machines in schools and thinking children can make healthy food choices is idiotic, however.

Perhaps at HOME they're overloaded with this crap and get more of the same at school. To blame it ALL on school is RIDICULOUS.
