In many countries, children are becoming overweight and unhealthy. Some people think that this is the responsibility of governments to solve the problem. What extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays,

children

's

obesity

is a continuous issue in different countries all over the world, some individuals argue that the authorities have to take responsibility for

this

. I partly agree with

this

statement and I explain my opinion in the following essay. On the one hand, the

government

should assume responsibility for tackling the problem of child

obesity

.

Firstly

, the authorities should impose high taxes on fast-food restaurants because when fast-food restaurants are highly taxed, it will lead to reduced profits.

Therefore

, restaurants will close and go bankrupt as profits decrease.

Additionally

, the

government

should provide free a program and facilities for

sports

. The

government

should provide

sports

equipment in parks under apartments,

this

will help

children

be more motivated to participate in

sports

.

On the other hand

, families should control their

children

's diet. And

also

, parents should cook more nutritious meals

instead

of eating fast food and junk food.

Obesity

is

also

caused by a lack of physical activity leads to a sedentary life.

Therefore

, parents should encourage motivation to play

sports

or other positive activities.

Besides

that, the school should raise kid’s awareness of the danger of

obesity

. In conclusion, the

government

should have the responsibility for dealing with

obesity

in

children

.

Moreover

, parents and schools should be educated about the dangers of

obesity

and unhealthy lifestyles.
