Really?

I'm out and about every day and I'm not seeing that.

I have two kids in school too. Not seeing it.


I'm not out and about very often, but I notice more scrawny as hell teen males than fat ones, the teen females tend to be chunky on the other hand. By the time they hit their mid 20's they seem to be plumping right up.

When I do go to town I do a lot of people watching while sitting in the parking lot waiting for the wife to get done shopping.
