520			_a"The epidemic of childhood obesity is a tragedy for many reasons, and it portends poorly for the health of our entire nation in the coming decades. Obese children have a low quality of life; the quality of life of severely obese children is similar to that of kids with cancer. Obese children also have a strong predisposition to become obese adults, with a greater likelihood of developing a battery of serious chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and, in the end, shorter life spans." (MOTHERING) This article discusses the childhood obesity epidemic and proposes that corporate marketing to children is a leading cause of their poor dietary habits.
