Many commentators noted that children nowadays are consumed with screens that may prevent them from going outside to exercise. Others pointed out that diets are probably not as healthy as they used to be. There were some who blamed Democrats and blue states for closing schools, playgrounds, sports leagues, and beaches – which led to a more sedentary lifestyle for children. Others questioned the study as to why obesity isn't more prevalent in hotter climates than in colder ones.
