I don't think the obesity problem is a result of single-parent families, but rather the increasing pressure to work longer and longer hours. That's something that many single parents struggle with, of course, but there are plenty of married couples I know who are both working 60-80 hours a week too.
It would be an interesting study to see if kids from single-parent homes were more likely to be overweight than those from two-parent ones.
