This is BS.

My mother grew up in almost poverty in London England with 5 brothers raised by a single mother. None of them are fat, and all of them are fit, and judging by their old photos, they weren't malnourished. They have all gone on to have very successful careers, a couple even achieving financial freedom before they hit 40!

Its North American values. As opposed to eating properly and making your kids GO OUT to play and have a life, we saturate ourselves with crap in front of the TV playing Xbox. Through this, we learn to not dream. Can't win, don't try. Pass me a controller.
