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?

Nowadays, more and more

children

are obese and

this

leads to serious health problems.

Although

I accept that the

parents

are responsible for the health issue of the

children

, I believe the authority should share a major part in the problem.

First

of all, it is reasonable for me to believe that the idea of promoting the significance of leading a healthy lifestyle should be done by the

government

. If schoolchildren are educated about the harms of becoming fat

such

as the risks of cardiovascular diseases and inconvenient movement, and the ways of eating healthily through propaganda from the regime, they may try to avoid having too much junk

food

and substitute it with light snacks like fruit due to media effects. Encouraging students to do exercise can

also

be seen in school when the

government

reforms physical education.

For example

, introducing different sports and increasing the time required for exercising at school to regulate

children

working out more,

instead

of glueing on their assignments only. These can only be done by the

government

. On the other side, some people believe

parents

should tackle toddlers' overweigh. Since

parents

are the one who arranges the diet and schedule for

children

, they are easier to correct

unhealthy habits.

However

, never should we overlook that

parents

may not have enough enforcement power .

For example

, not only can youngsters buy junk

food

after school with their pocket money, but they may

also

rebel against their

parents

by not following their orders and making their relationships tenser.

In contrast

, the

government

can mitigate the issue with greater effectiveness. According to the successful examples in Norway, which sets up an obese tax for high fat and sugar

food

such

as chocolate and potato chips, gives great deterrent effect to the citizens in consuming more junk

food

.

Furthermore

, these examples are significant tract to be considered from

children

's perspective. To conclude, due to the aforementioned argument, we can safely conclude that the state is the major stakeholder in alleviating the issue. I strongly recommend the authority should take action to reduce the number of
