With Childhood Obesity already becoming a severe problem in our society (and future drain on our health care system, much like smoking), Video games are vastly contibuting to this problem. Too many kids are foregoing physical activity for sitting on a couch and plaing games or watching TV as it is. If we give them more incentive to do so, the problems caused by this unhealthy lifestyle will only escalate.

Very true. But working in an office all day long does the exact same thing to older people. There is nothing wrong with playing video games, as long as you find an effective schedule that can keep you in shape as well.
