they should change this suit to pot v. kettle.


yes, but I believe its just the parents fault. Sure they were begged by the kids to buy all of these foods that they lost track of what was happening. If you have no control over your kids then they will have total control of you and get what they want. Parents are supplying food for the children, so why aren't they checking to see if the food i healthy first instead of becoming their kid's doormat. Also it depends on the quantity of the food as well. If the kids had a limit and moderate exercise, then this wouldn't have even occured.
