"Being fat takes the fun out of being a kid," read graphics of a TV ad in which a young girl tells of how she doesn't like going to school because she's bullied over her weight.
It is part of a video and print campaign to combat childhood obesity in Georgia, which has one of the highest childhood obesity rates in the nation.

I heard today that 40% of McDonalds' profits come from the sale of Happy Meals. Parents let their kids eat a bunch of junk and they wonder why they are so fat.
This campaign is the first of three...with the other 2 phases focusing on health promotion - healthy eating & exercise
I wonder if these phases will receive the same funding & media attention
Thanks to McDonald's and similar type of food, we are raising a nation of "fatties." The outlook is for a huge increase in diabetes and other weight-related illnesses. Kids are spending too much time playing video games and those sorts of things. Very few get any kind of exercise.
It is not just McDonalds, even at home, mothers take a box of frozen chemicals microwave them and call it food. Read the boxs, if you don't understand the ingrediants and there are more than three, throw it away and never buy again.
How dare those evil socialist tell us our kids are fat
