^^^^^I just can't blame screens. It seems to be the scapegoat for obesity but really just don't think it's a valid cause. I don't think it is the exception here. I just don't think screens make people as fat as some say.
I just don't see sports as really adequate exercise as a whole really, especially heavily organized "team" sports. I just don't think it's the most efficient way to keep kids healthy.
Well those are other issues right there. lol But I hear of people getting up even earlier than that. IMO, it's ridiculous. Our culture is oversportsed. I don't know anybody who doesn't have a kid active in sports. Frankly, I think the obesity problem isn't solved by kicking a soccerball, and it isn't solved by turning off the TV. It's great that you keep your son active. But I think the main problem is parents not parenting.
