What a great bill. It is time for the damn parents to start acting like parents.

Parents always try to put the blame on someone else. They should not take them to fast food all the time. Here is a news flash. Home cooked meals.

You know meat veggies and a fruit desert.

That's what we have every night for dinner. We have vegetables every night.

A main dish and most of the time some fruit.

I make my kids eat all there vegetables. They are good for them.

If you feed them well while they are young. Then they most likely eat better as adults. and therefore no law suits cause less people would be obeise

Remember this is just My opinion

Hmmm, McD's causes obesity? The simple existance of a McDonalds in your general vicinity actually causes weight gain? WOW. I always thought it was the food you voluntarily purchased and stuffed down yer craw that made you fat. Learn something new every day.

Very true.
I was just saying that maybe and only maybe, if the parents would feed there kids right when they were younger maybe they would eat better when they were older.

Not saying that the parents are at fault here. But look how many kids are obeise.

I can't believe they need a bill like this to prevent stupid lawsuits...I mean, the courts shouldn't allow stupid lawsuits like that in the first place.

Common Sense...fried foods = fat. DUH!!!!!!!

Dead on! Eating habits are first learned at home!! Healthy eating habits are a "learned" behavior...not one a child is naturally born with! Want a snack little one??...here...have a banana or an orange, or a bunch of grapes. When they are given those...they become a natural sweet treat. French fries? Sure...with moderation, along with all other junk foods.

In a lawsuit filed in 2002, two Bronx teenagers accused McDonald's of making them fat by serving them highly processed food that affected their health. A judge tossed out the case a year later, but an appeals court reinstated part of the suit earlier this year, according to published reports.

I don't know why they chose McD's when they could've hit a coochy frito instead. Way better food!
