Fat children ‘should be taken into care’

how can you blame chiken shops, mac D's, pizza hut or even the supermarkets?? sure they sell food that isnt great but people dont have to buy it.

But they're ubiquitous. Kids learn to recognise brand logos before they recognise their own name written down. It's all going in, all the time, and needs to be consciously rejected.

On the whole, people, especially young ones, feel compelled to fit with their environment. This is what Darwin meant by survival of the 'fittest'. We're a highly adaptive species.

Pressure, pressure, pressure. Have you read 'The Subliminal Man', a short story by J. G. Ballard? It summed up the whole phenomenon way back in the (early?) 60s. Good read.
