he will never live to see age 10, his heart will fail unless there is medical intervention. there are obese children everywhere, it's a modern plague. and barring medical causes, this is selfish parental abuse! poor kid. he's only 3.
in China the little prince is probably the only child/only son, so rules the home.
i know we've discussed obesity as child abuse before. it's everywhere. are the parents simply ignorant of nutrition and health?
from Daily Mail:
This Chinese boy tips the scales at a massive ten stone (140 lbs.) -- five times the average weight of the three-year-olds in his class.
Such is the concern over his size that Xiao Hao was banned from several pre-schools because staff believed his size posed a risk to classmates.
He has now found a nursery in Guangzhou, southern China, which is happy to accommodate him but his mother Xiao Lin has asked doctors to help him lose weight.
I think it's child abuse. To let your child (who is really under your control at that age with regards to what they eat) balloon to those proportions...um, no. Take the kid away if the parents can't learn how to just say no to Happy Meals.
This surprises me that they are both Chinese..they are not known for being particularly fat. Their foods are rather healthy.
But I hate when parents use the excuse that the kid demands the food...and they give it to them.
Many Chinese parents virtually worship their sons but thats generally because sons are expected to get higher paid jobs than daughters so they can support their parents when they get older.
I can't see what career these two warthogs are going to go into, eating comps?

Multi millionaire martial arts superstar Jackie Chan still refuses to leave any food on his plate, he was taught as a child that every morsel was a precious blessing. My mate Ken (not his real name) who delivers takeaway food at the weekends says that it is common for Chinese parents to force their children to eat everything put in front of them regardless of how full they feel.
Looks like these parents have taken that idea to the nth degree.

When you're a 4-foot tall liberal whose big ambition was to have the best hamster farm on the block, most ideas would look like they were taken to the "nth degree."
