Thirty years ago, childhood obesity wasn't on anyone's radar. What have we done to our children over the past few decades to be in the situation where we hear over and over again that this generation of kids will have a shorter lifespan than their parents? Why do we continue to get fatter? And what are we doing about it?
Did the advent of Happy Meals do it? Video games? Lack of safe spaces to play or sidewalks? Is it a lack of time to spend on cooking and eating as a family
