That is plain stupid. Kids don't need to carb count.

(That said, I may consider eating there because the moment my 2 year-old spots a french fry all other foods become nonexistent.)

Kids that are extremely overweight do, they're on the road to diabetes.

You should see the size of some of these kids nowadays. There are overweight 10yr olds. IMHO with all the sugary crap that kids scarf down this kind of thing may help.

And BTW...my life experience disproves this article completely. My wife and I were trying to have kids since 1997. We finally gave up on the idea. My wife had a history of fertility problems to begin with. We were both overweight, I had about 100 lbs to lose. Last summer we both went on the Atkins diet and lost all the weight. Remarkably...she became pregnant, and on June 8 (and pardon me for not making a vanity thread...I've been kinda of busy with the baby and all ;) ) baby Luke came along.

SO...I credit the Atkins diet for enhancing fertility...not degrading it.
