The Puerto Ricans are staring down the barrel of a monster
child obesity epidemic.
It’s currently estimated that 24% -30% of their children are obese.
Pretty f#cking scary!

What do you think:
good idea?

Let me know your opinion,
especially those of you with young kids.
I think this is a fascinating debate,
so would appreciate your feedback on it.
