I haven't been to a pool lately but when I see overweight kids, they usually look like shorter versions of their parents. The entire family will be overweight.

"The entire family will be overweight."

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Perhaps some of this is hereditary, but my suspicions are on 'agri-business' and the doping of animals with chemicals which are not fit for human or animal consumption. Fast food chains are a more obvious culprit.

The longer term consequences on health care and diseases such as Type II diabetes might be further down the road, and all of us end up footing the bill in one way or another.

Gravity - the new force of family togetherness.
