I can not stand judgental people
Quote From: conniesechmanI have always beleive that if the child does not have a medical condition that is causing the weight gain of that child then the parent is 100% responsible for that child. It is common sense that the child is unhealthy and overweight. The parent needs to get this child active and take video games, computer and start limiting the food intake. When that child passes away due to neglect then that parent needs to be charged with the childs death. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS. Do whatever it takes to get this child to lose weight and get healthy. The PARENT is the one that children depend on. The PARENT is the one that is in control of their life for 18 years. The PARENT is the one responsible for the children. The PARENT is the one that takes full responsibility for the children actions. The PARENT must take action with help thru medical doctors,to see that these children that are morbidly obese get the help they need to get these children healthy. The PARENT should take full responsibility for the death of the child due to the PARENTS neglect that is just commen sense to anyone of how unhealthy this is. I feel that most parents will outlive their children because of this. I can't stomach when people make comments about obese children. I have a 2 year old is 80 pounds and is 42 inches tall. Like the mother in this story I have had every test imaginble for my son. So far there is nothing thatcan be found medically. I have taken my son down to 900 calories a day and he is very active. He gains between 2 an 3 pounds a month that started at about 6 months. How can a child start gaining weight this young and people blame it on what the child eats. I have 2 other children and they never had this problem. To the poster that says it is the parents fault shame on you. If you have not walked in this parents shoes as I have then do not judge. There is a genetics specialist at the Univerity of Florida in Gainesville that specializes in children like ours.
