What do you think of this answer, as it relates to our health and fitness?

I can relate to electronics causing us to have more health issues. As adults we can decide how much or how little we allow technology to influence our lives. Where I live the weather plays a big part in how active I am. If the weather is nice I want to be outside and be active, when it is rainy or cold I do tend to be a couch potato. I always limited my childrens time watching television or playing video games. I can see a steady incline in the weight of children with more and more technology being used by them. When I was a kid the best times we had were going camping and fishing or going to summer camp. With my kids we didn't seem to have the time for camping trips and did more amusement parks and water parks in the summer. I couldn't find a good summer camp by the time my kids were camp aged. My grandkids are even less into the outdoors than my kids were growing up. It is sad and something that should be worked on of we don't want to see obesity continue to rise.
