Darn near every young kid seen in my neighborhood is a fat porker.
When we were kids we were running, playing, pedaling bicycles everywhere...and it has contributed to a fit adulthood.
These children are essentially welded to their smartphones.

yep that was my childhood too. We all ran around and played outside quite a bit.

Nowadays, due in part to fears of child molesters, parents are afraid to let their kids go roaming around, playing unsupervised, etc. So kids sit at home more, playing video games and watching mindless TV.
