Obesity was once considered a disease of adults; however, it is being increasingly common among children. Why do you think this is happening? What can be done to help children stay healthy?

With increased choices in eating and a sedentary lifestyle, obesity has become a global issue, irrespective of the age. While earlier, it was believed to be an illness of older people, recently, it is compounding more among youngsters. Has anyone thought about the dire consequences of

this

change?

Although

, there are many reasons behind

this

vogue,

however

, if we educate our

next

generation about the importance of self well-being,

then

this

situation can be controlled to get worse. In

this

essay we will discuss the reasons behind

this

issue and will try to find a solution which can help adolescents and teenagers to stay healthy. In many countries, the multifarious options of fast-food have attracted not only adults, but

also

the children. To save time, and for convenience, even the elders of the family expose their offspring to these ready to eat meal.

Hence

, making everyone addicted to

such

type of eatables. Studies have shown, when adult members of the family do not care about their own health, their kids are expected to follow them and

further

surpass them in

such

habits.

As a result

, the whole association becomes unhealthy while following each other and the wide choices of

such

foodstuff.

Hence

, wrong choice of food and sedentary lifestyle is making and will continue to make our people obese.

This

situation is not going to improve until the current community does not make themselves acquainted to a healthy lifestyle, as for youngsters, we are the role model, and they learn from us.

Furthermore

, schools should

also

educate their students about the vital importance of following a healthy regime and eating healthy feed. A study by the child psychology department of New York says that the kids who are made to practice a good-living right from the beginning, are expected to follow

this

throughout their lives than those who do not get

this

learning.

Therefore

, it becomes essential for the education system and elders to educate youngsters about healthy styles, so that kids can get a brighter healthy future. To recapitulate, having mulled over above stated arguments and information, and deliberating all the facts, it can be deducted that

although

obesity has become a major issue among all ages, still with the right intervention of parents to educate their offspring about

this

and

further

themselves following a healthy living can address

this

unhealthy trend. In my opinion, if we all get aware of its pernicious effects and start following healthy-living and make our kids walk on the same path than

this

pandemic can be resolved automatically.
