its a problem when my kids get called skinny and they are average weight. i guess being fat is the new thing now and being skinny is not being normal anymore. its a damn shame!

This is simply a case of trifling parents, clearly they care nothing about thier childs weight as well as well being. THERE IS NOTHING CUTE ABOUT A FAT CHILD. Black parents in particular need to reasses what they feed their children especially with all the health issues that plague our community as is, just simply trifling, then when the child dies of a heart attack the parents will sue the doctors, they should be locked up for negligence while the child is alive

The kids in this pic are truly overweight. I don’t know what some people think overweight is but I know depending on race… some people would take it differently. I remember my neice came home one day complaining that her health book claimed she was overweight.. We were living in a little town called Bloomsburg in PA. It says for the height of 5’5.. a person must be 120lbs. (Bloomsburg is a dominantly white town). Now I’m not tryin to make this about race or start any bullshit based on what I heard but I’m 5’5 right now and I weigh 150 and I’m sexy. I don’t care what no one says. Some people… white or black…asain or green.. or whatever may say that’s overweight because they are used to a slimmer body. I say its normal if you are used to thickness and you like a little extra. ANYWHO…. Overweight children does depend on the parents and I truly believe that.. But sometimes you can just be born big.. IDK.. ( I have no kids so maybe IDK what I’m talkin about). But I do believe if u teach your child healthy eating habits from the beginning.. like no ice cream and fishy’s and cookies at 3 in the morning (that’s what I do.LMAO) then they will continue to embrace healthy eating habits.
