Childhood obesity is declining, says the National Center for Health Statistics. But Tabitha M. Powledge thinks there's more to this story: "Greet these data with little glad cries, and hope madly that these kids, and those who come after, can continue to maintain healthful weight as they navigate through the crises of life. But absorb also the fact that it's at best a dent in the obesity statistics. As the paper points out, obesity hasn't declined in other age groups."
