The real issues are with the parents that are allowing their kids to eat whatever they want, when they want and don't enforce healthy eating habits. Yeah, of course being physical goes hand in hand, but a proper diet is the core.

Exactly... in this country PE is a joke because there are no set standards. In other countries you have to meet a minimum athletic standard to pass... you cant do that here because everyone is touchy feely on almost everything.
For kids below say 14... I would say nearly everything would be the parents fault... Above that, you should know better.
