Health groups want to ban advertising for junk food to fight obesity. What happened to parents regulating what their kids eat, and promoting excersise. When I was a boy, we had candy, McDonalds, Coca Cola, chips, crisps and all manner of junk food, we had Atari and intellivision game consoles, but none of my friends or myself were obese, because when the sun shined my butt was outside, sport was promoted, and we ate home cooked meals, even with both parents working. Is society really at a state where big brother has to tell us what to eat so we don't get fat. Do people really not care about the welfare and health of their children? People all shout about their freedom, but then they whine about junkfood adverts when there kids are fat, shouldn't they have a look in the mirror, when looking for someone to blame.
