Time to Blame Women Again

Working mom's are responsible for childhood obesity. They just couldn't say that homes with two parents that work outside the home are responsible - no, because women aren't devoting their entire lives to pandering to their child, obesity rates rise. It is all women's fault.

Actually, the notion that families with both adults working outsode the home, especially before a child enters school, being more likely to have obese or overweight children is more or less a no brainer. Less direct parental supervision may lead to over eating, and it might also lead to a feeling of abandonment that is quickly filled by food. But jesus christ, I thought we were past this "working moms ruining kids" bullshit, especially from the BBC.
