A short YouTube monologue by Nate Tilley warning parents (addressed as the "1 percenters") about the consequences of allowing children to become overweight. The speaker argues parental responsibility for childhood obesity and its downstream consequence—diabetes—and admonishes listeners not to wait for harm before changing behaviors.
This message isn't for you. This is only for the 1 percenters. If you're an overweight person, yeah, you're like, you don't cause any problems right now. And then you let your kids be overweight, too. And then one day your kids get diabetes, and the doctor says, well, your kid's got diabetes. What do I need to do? And they say, they need to eat healthier. Who let them get that way? Who's the bad guy now? You guys don't even understand. Everything in this world has a consequence. Don't wait for something bad to happen before you change.
