Re: Over Weight School Children To Get Home Help

They would do better to spend the money on getting back the school playing fields and encouraging outdoor activity PT, games, sport, hopscotch, skipping......also getting parents to see that carbonated drinks are bad for their childrens health.

I am not sure if the fixation with weight at an early age could be harmful and encourage children to become anorexic/bulimic later on in their childhood.
