But uptick this year. Also, are they including overweight children in their malnourishment stats? Agree it’s malnourishment but see it as less of an issue than starving.
How is it less of an issue? You can certainly die from obesity. And what a waste of resources feeding people stuff that will kill them anyway. Doesn't really make sense to me.
well really with parents who let them overindulge. Can’t really blame the kids.
Not blaming the kids, parents, or even the doctors. It's powerful industries that are selling bad food to parents telling them that it's good for them. And profiting from that.
not saying you're blaming the kids my other reply here sounded like I was blaming the kids for overindulging. God forbid we expect the parents to take any responsibility.
not saying its ok. just when I hear stats of child malnourishment I think of thin, starving children without access to food. not those who have too much food & choose to over indulge.
