Why Safe Kids Are Becoming Fat Kids - WSJ.com

Please, everyone with young children or grandchildren, read this article. This is a song I've been singing for a long time. All of my kids have scars---from being active. Marty broke his arm falling off a slide at recess, Gretchen smashed her knee by rollerblading into a curb, Jamie got hamemered being an active kid. I won't even talk about all the scars I have from playground activity. I'm not advocating injury---I'm advocating kids learning about an active life by living it. Have you ever seen so many fat kids as you do today? Jim
