What holds power
What does hold power? Some people think that school holds power, but I think that electronics hold the most power. School can hold power by determining what you do on the weekends like if you get a referral you can’t go to any parties or how many little parties you go to. Also, school life in general can influence your parents on what they have you do like if you can have a cell phone or if you go out with your girlfriend of boyfriend to a movie or a club. Or maybe you can't hang out with your best friends at the mall.
I think that cell phones hold the most power because everybody is always texting and talking about this party or that place or how fun the club is. Many people would be lost without their phone and think they can’t live without it and it would make everything all boring and no fun.

Obesity
In 2008 alone obesity was over 30% BMI in 6 states and over 50% of the United States was in the 25%-29% BMI range. Also, being over weight leads to major heart problems like cardiovascular disease, some types of cancer, and type 2 diabetes. Also you could even acquire sleep apnea. Which is when you stop breathing for a short period of time. Colorado is the only state that had less than 20% BMI.
While some people argue that obesity is caused by boredom, adults not watching what they feed their children or maybe its genetics, The main reason is lack of time and money is an important factor in the game of life.
Most people argue that people have nothing to do so they walk and grab junk food so they can just take a box and leave again. perchance they are watching a movie and want a snack on an advertisement and just grab a package a cookies or something that doesn't need to be prepared. If the television is left on and the kids see some toys that are only at a fast food place the parent would just take them their so they will shut up and leave them alone. Although some people cant handle their weight because of their genetics, like if you don't have a high metabolism or cant run or anything that you cant get the exercise you need.
But others believe that lack of time and money is a problem. For example, if both of the parents have to go to work and the kid is unaccompanied by an adult, might head over to McDonald's or any fast food place right after picking up their children and taking them home to eat and wait for the other person
