Question

Why is youth so ugly and fat,,,and mean?

Answer 1

i have one child hes about 5'5 and about 120 pounds hes very polite and friendly...if u ever meet him and hes rude let me know he will be punished.... i pride my self on how polite my child is, he gets rewarded for good grade and good behavior..and punished for bad behavior..and bad grade...hes 13 and goes out of his way to be nice to people.but I'm a stay at home mom who can be with my child everyday and be able to see what goes in his mouth...but most parents have to work two and three jobs to support their family and they depend on strangers like u to give a helping hand..remember the saying it takes a village to raise a family well that's very true..this is not the leave it to beaver days those days are gone...and parents are so tired its easier and cheaper to stop at McDonald's...and if the child is rude to u then he/she got some kinda vibe from u. u most of been rude to him in some sort of way and not even realized it...are u prejudice about over weight people and think that they are ugly and mean because of the weight problem

Answer 2

The new generation is so fat because parents let their children eat whatever they want. Some parents make their children eat fruit but not all fruit is low in calories and sugars but they have a lot of minerals that we need. If one kid eats two pretty large brownies thats about 1,000 calories and most people dont know that. And i cant answer that ugly and mean part because they get it from others.

Answer 3

The condition you cite is not just relegated to children from the USA. Unfortunately, this is creeping into Canadian and parts of European society as well. (mostly UK and Eire) This type of obesity is an artifact of both prosperity and poor judgment. (you don't see this for example in China and India) Foods containing disproportionate amounts of salt fats and sugars are readily available and relatively cheap. One just needs to exercise judgment and limit their intake. Also, many from North America are more sedentary than say 20 years ago. With the advent of video games and more homework, less time is spent outside playing. Also, restaurant meals serve ridiculous helping sizes. That said, many communities in the USA are taking steps to help alleviate these problems. The availability of junk food and soda at school has curtailed drastically, and exercise is being encouraged more. As for the parents of these children, they should teach by dietary example.

Because food is available everywhere, most of it unhealthy. Things like PlayStation, TV, etc. Kids would rather stay inside instead of being outside and getting some exercise.

Answer 6

Because their parents are lazy and letting their kids eat like pigs keeps them from having to deal with thim. Parents of fat kids should be charged with neglect.

Too much mcdonald's diet. Fast foods, chips, chocolate, and worst of all, "soft drinks" (aka pepsi, cola, sprite etc).
