  1. Childhood obesity is affecting American kids at an alraming rate of 1 to 3 kids. This is due to the lack of excercise most get. Instead of being outside playing they're on the internet and t.v. constantly.

    This is a very serious issue because if children are obese while young they will deveolp all sorts of health problems that will plague them for the rest of their lives. heart disease, diabetes, back problems, etc.

    This is a serious problem with a simple solution. Get kids excercising with playing outside games like football and soccer. Put down the controller for an hour and go outside. Play video games on rainy days instead of sunny ones. Eat more fruits and vegetables instead of potatoe chips and candy.
