Has the Rise of the Children’s Networks Contributed to Obesity in Kids?
It’s something I want you to dwell on for right now (I’ll do a full post in a wee bit), but does the fact that there are three networks broadcasting children’s TV shows 24/7 (for the most part) form a contributing factor when it comes to childhood obesity?
I’m not talking about the content or the advertising (although that has long earned the wrath of concerned citizens) I’m talking solely about the fact that children nowadays have unmetered access to content aimed at them.
What are your thoughts? Would limiting the hours of operation of children’s channels make a difference?
