Child obesity is a rampant problem in developed countries but some think fast food is the cause while some believe parents are the one to be blamded for. In my opinion, Fast food and lack of parents' care both contribute to child obesity but the role of parents is more crucial. Parents have a greater responsibilty in their overweight children. According to many scientific reports, there is no doubt that unbalanced diets and excessive intake of food are the main cause of obesity. Therefore, parents need to provide good quality food and adequate proportions. Furthermore, parents should also educate their children how to prepare a healthy meal and select good food from supermarkets. In addition, if they can pass on a healthy lifestyle, such as enough exercise and less sedentary activity, their children will have a better chance to have a good shape. Easily accessible fast food outlets is definitely a headache for dealing with child obesity. Fast food is cheaper compared to other good meals and from time to time big advertisements and free toys are used to attract more young consumers. In some countries, it is quite difficult to find an alternative place to eat because fast food restaurants occupy the whole food courts. Although fast food is an heated issue in child obesity, parents are a decisive factor. For example, there are many ways to keep a healthy life and lose extra kilos. Parents can be a role model and encourage their children to play sport. They should also spend quality time with their kids. Many things relating to obesity are facing our children all the time so constant help and advice from parents are the key to keep fit. To sum up, Children rely on their parents' protection to resist the seduction of fast food. They also need a good guide on their path to adulthood. Fast food is only a obstcle in their developmet. Obesity is a big problem and Parents are the one who can provide a true solution. -- OK, how come you become a prolific writer now? 我自首，我是为了达到200篇。 --
