Over the years we have been fighting with the issue of obesity among children in the United States. Nearly one in three kids and adolescents are overweight or obese in the United States. Obesity in children has more than tripled from 1971 to 2011and is the number one cause for concern amongst parents in the United States. It is important to prevent obesity during childhood because habits that are formed during youth usually carry on into adulthood. Being obese describes children with a body mass index at or above the 95th percentile for their age and gender. An overweight child would be described as having a body mass index at or above the 85th percentile but below the 95th percentile. Children

Utter et al. (2011) evaluated the effectiveness of a youth-led school-based intervention aimed to reduce and prevent childhood obesity. Students were recruited from elementary schools in South Auckland, New Zealand that agreed to participate in the Living for Life study. The study consisted of 3881 children who were randomly assigned to the intervention or the comparison group based on the school they attended. Six schools participated in the study, four intervention and two observation schools. Parental consent and child assent were signed before participation in the intervention began.
One the biggest problems we deal with today, especially in America is obesity. More specifically our younger generation. The number of obese children has risen dramatically in the last couple decades and doesn’t seem to be getting any better. With fast food restaurants popping up around every corner it’s hard not to see why we are a fat country and why our children will grow up to be obese. But who is to blame for this rise in obesity with in our young children, the parent? The fast food chains? Society in general? In the past years we seen a shift in how younger people interact with one another, from spending the day outside and playing to staying at home starring at a television all day. The impact of childhood obesity doesn’t just impact the lives of them but of everyone as it is responsible for around 14.1 billion dollars in direct medical costs ("McDonald’s Shareholder Proposal No. 7." xx-xx). The way we treat our children has also taken a dramatic change as well in the way we discipline them and allow them to engage one another in social situation. All these impact the problems that we are dealing with today when it comes to obesity in young children. But together we can help change how children grew up and keep them healthy and living longer lives.
Childhood obesity may not seem like a serious problem, but it is a serious medical condition that can have major effects on a child. Although genetics play a role in determining a child’s weight, it is usually due to a child’s amount of exercise and the consumption of healthy meals. Doctors are concerned with the issue, as we all should be, and they are creating new programs that are geared toward helping children learn how to follow a healthier lifestyle. There are some promising outlooks with these programs, and most doctors agree that parents should help their children create a more active and healthy lifestyle. They also agree that the government should provide more attention to the issue as well. Since the growing problem of childhood obesity can be detrimental to children’s health, actions should be taken by parents and the government to combat the issue by introducing children to a healthy diet, encouraging children to be physically active, and limiting the time spent playing video games and watching television.
Many adolescents are suffering of obesity in the past couple of years. It has become a huge problem for many kids from ages six through eleven and twelve through nineteen in the United States. The percentage of kids twelve through nineteen has increased from 5% to almost 21%. For children six to eleven has increased from 7% to 18% over a course of thirty two years. The rapid growth of obesity in the country is very concerning for many people, including parents and doctors. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention state that in 2012 almost one third of children and adolescents are overweight or obese. This immense growth of children overweight can be prevented. It becomes even more clear that recess can make a huge change. It provides
Imagine your child being bullied in school because they were obese. They become more lazy with school work and have poor morals on health to pass down to their children. Obesity has reached an epidemic high in the U.S. I believe that children should participate in at least 20 minutes of a “workout” at school while still engaging in P.E. and recess. Students are more attentive when they are at optimal weight which could improve their grades and self esteem.

Obesity is defined as having excess body fat and with a BMI above the 85th percentile. According to the CDC, the percentage of children and adolescents affected by obesity has more than tripled since the 1970’s. Many factors contribute to childhood obesity including: genetics, metabolism, community and neighborhood design and safety, sleep, eating habits and physical activity (Healthy Schools, 2018). I believe this has happened because children as more parents are working, children are spending more time indoors and not able to get physical activity. Another reason is the ease of access to junk food, including sweets and fast food. Since children are watching more television, they are seeing more commercials for fast food and because parents
Educating children in childhood and adolescence will promote childhood healthy growth and also intellectual development. Therefore, starting health programs at school will help children and their parents to obtain education and reinforcement for healthy body and healthy mind. Montgomery county School Health Council states that since 2011 obesity prevention is a priority and therefore they adopted new menu for school lunches and physical education requirements. Here is one of the examples of programs that were adopted “School Health Services: obesity prevention school-based program called Healthy Choices, Happy Students which includes Nutrition Nuggets, an afternoon nutrition information program (in collaboration with the University of Maryland
Childhood obesity is a health problem that is becoming increasingly prevalent in society’s youth. For a number of years, children across the nation have become accustomed to occasionally participating in physical activities and regularly snacking on sugary treats. In result of these tendencies, approximately one third of American children are currently overweight or obese (Goodwin). These grim statistics effectively represent all the lack of adult interference, in regards to health, has done to the youth of America. The habits of over consuming foods and under participating in physical activities are all too common in the children of today. Children cannot solve this issue alone, though. These young people need to essentially be given the opportunities to make positive health decisions and learn about good, nutritional values.
