Blaming parents is so passé.
You sure? I thought it was Republican?

Blaming parents is so passé.
Yeah, but usually it's parents who instill bad habits in their children by taking them to fast food joints too often.
Are you an adult? If so, you are wholly responsible for all of your actions. Totally and completely 100% responsible.
I've seen your photo VRWC. When you gonna lose the puppy fat?![]()
They would be responsible only for as long as it would take, once you reach adulthood, of placing yourself on a weight loss and exercise regimen to not be a fatty anymore, right?
BS. If you are a responsible adult and you still CHOOSE to act a certain way, then it lies entirely on you and only you. Nobody else is responsible once you are responsible for making your own decisions. We have minds, are are able to make informed decisions.
Personal responsibility, that's what it's all about.

There should be equal concern placed towards Happy Meals. It's the same marketing strategy: get them while they're young and impressionable.
Ever wonder why they have giant sizes? It's because somebody is more likely to eat a large order of fries that contains 3x as much as a small order, then they are to eat two small orders. Because eating two small orders makes them feel like a pig.
It goes further, warpus.
Food is a very emotional thing. We associate it with the feelings and goings-on of the event in which it is consumed. Parents often take kids there as a reward or for "fun times". This causes a life-long association between the food and 'good times' that becomes a subconcious driver of diet.
Unless a gun is being put to your head, or knife to your throat, or other sort of coercion, the responsibility of eating fast food lies totally with the consumer and nobody else. You don't have to go to McDonalds or Hardee's or Sonic or Smak's. You CHOOSE to. Just like with voting, eating is entirely on the private citizen and nobody else.
You CAN go to McDonalds and order a salad, grilled chicken or apple dippers. The company HAS made healthier options available. Even if it hadn't, nothing prevents a person from preparing better meals at home. If you can't figure out how to make a meal that tastes better than a big mac at home, you haven't tried hard enough. That's not any company's fault.
