In many countries, children are becoming overweight and unhealthy. Some people think that the government has the responsibility to solve this problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Today, many different countries’

children

tend to have

health

issues with being overweight. Some people argue, the

government

has to make an effort to alleviate

this

situation. In my view, the

children’s

health

should be cared for by their

parents

. On the one hand, the

government

might be responsible for

children’s

fitness problems. It is true that the

government

has a lot of duties for their citizens.

Therefore

, they invest a lot of money in various aspects.

For example

, the

government

spends a lot of money on providing better living conditions to people or they have to make an effort to keep social security. Equally, the ministry has to improve public

health

. It is true that

children

are part of society,

thus

, the

government

has to care for the

children’s

health

.

However

,

children’s

parents

and their teachers have to focus more on

this

issue.

To begin

with, the main factor of

children’s

overweight is fast foods that have high calories.

Thus

, to reduce the number of overweight

children

, their

parents

have to care for and control eating fast foods.

Furthermore

, lack of exercise can cause

health

problems,

therefore

, if schools increase their outdoor activities classes, their offspring can have more opportunities to do sports,

such

as soccer and basketball.

Consequently

, only

children

and schools can reduce their weight through less fast food and more activities. In conclusion,

although

the

government

has to make an effort to reduce the number of

children

who have bad

health

with being overweight, I believe the

parents

and the school have a responsibility in

this

situation.
