If it were as easy as telling parents to have their children eat healthier and exercise more, I don't believe as many children would be overweight. We need to think together about the multitude of factors that increase a child's risk of overweight, and then target them one by one… The complexity of all of these issues speaks to the complexity of addressing the obesity epidemic.

We believe it may be because parents who perceive their neighborhoods as unsafe do not allow their children to play outside as much, and when children do not play outside as much, they do not get as much exercise.
