parents of obesed children should be punished for making them fat. Do you agree or disagree

It is argued that

parents

of overweight scion should be penalized for making them too heavy. I would disagree with

this

statement because young people often eat unhealthy food outside of the home and

obesity

can be caused by

genetics

.

Parents

cannot be blamed because children often eat junk when they are not with their

parents

. some teenagers can be very difficult, they still consume excess sweets even after being warned by their father and mother to avoid too many chocolates. And, they do these when they are not with their guardians.

For instance

, It was reported that 70 per cent of pupils eat a lot of Sweets at school. Many

parents

work so hard to be able to meet up with school fees and to feed their family well.

As a result

of

this

, they are not always with their offspring even during holidays.

In addition

,

genetics

is a causative factor of

obesity

. It is the transfer of some genes or traits from

parents

or Grandparents to their offspring.If a family has a history of

obesity

, there is a 50 per cent chance that some of their generations will be obese. It is natural and no one should be held responsible for another person's

obesity

.

For example

, A recent study conducted in the US revealed that 76% of

obesity

is caused by

genetics

.

Although

,

parents

and teachers can do well to educate pupils on some lifestyles modification

such

as diet and exercise. In conclusion, we all need to know that

genetics

has contributed to the course of overweight among young ones. Individuals do not have control over

genetics

, so it's nobody's fault.

Parents

are not always together with their toddlers , so they cannot be blamed for their children

obesity

.Children Should be informed on the importance of staying fit and healthy. They should

also

be educated on healthy eating habits; doing

this

will make them eat right even in the absence of their

parents

.
