This day and age, parents do not page attention to their child’s weight. It is becoming a global epidemic that children are eating whatever they want and it is causing a lot of health problems for kids. Especially when they grow up and have significant more problems relating to how they ate as a child. Tackling and solving this problem is not just the parent’s problem. This problem is for everybody around the world to come together and try to figure this out. It needs to come to a stop now before the trend continues further.
