I see these little fat kids and I just want to kick ’em.
They are going to be a drain on society for the rest of their lives.
They should be rolled off of cliffs.
A new study adds to evidence that severe obesity is becoming more common in young US children.
There was some hope that children in a government food program might be bucking a trend in obesity rates — earlier research found rates were dropping a little about a decade ago for those kids.
But an update released Monday in the journal Pediatrics shows the rate bounced back up a bit by 2020.
The increase echoes other national data, which suggests around 2.5% of all preschool-aged children were severely obese during the same period.
“We were doing well and now we see this upward trend,” said one of the study’s authors, Heidi Blanck of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“We are dismayed at seeing these findings.”
…
Experts say severe obesity at a very early age is nearly irreversible, and is strongly associated with chronic health problems and an early death.
It’s not clear why the increase occurred, Blanck said.
Nearly irreversible? I’ve never heard of it ever being reversible.
They have significantly lower IQs as adults than they otherwise would have as well.
This is dead weight.
They should go live in Canada, where they can get the proper treatment.
I’ve long argued for deporting all fat people to Canada.
“Doctors analyzing almost 130,000 kids in CA recently found that ‘childhood obesity is associated with earlier puberty in both boys and girls,’ and Komlos and others have found that those children then experience a smaller growth spurt than their peers.”https://t.co/50LlkGom58 pic.twitter.com/HbrdPQMm2b
