That's not good. Food ads are also finding their way in to classrooms.
It's a huge drain on our healthcare systems, but how can you blame children since food advertisements aren't even just on tv anymore.  They have moved into the classroom.
Obesity seems to be a real problem these days, especially among young people. Do you agree that obesity is mostly preventable through social changes and personal choices? I think that society has lost the ability to prepare healthy meals at home and we rely too heavily on fast food and junk food. It can be addicting. That's a good thought. Other countries have see increasing obesity, but the US has the highest rates in the world. Yes. I think we need to go back to teaching basic cooking skills in school, like they do in Britain. That's a great thought. In France, though, obesity is growing as a health issue. Oh dear, I didn't know that. So it's not just an American problem. I think lack of exercise plays a huge role too. You think so? Laws in recent years have tried to address advertisements. Hopefully that will help. Obesity is a tremendous drain our our healthcare systems.
