We would like to enact a law requiring parents/guardians of overweight children to be fined $500 if their child fails to make progress losing weight in the span of 3 months. If the child fails to make progress losing weight in the span of another 3 months the parent is to fined an additional $1000 and be required to attend nutrition classes. If no progress is made the parent/guardian will be fined $1000 every 3 months until progress is made. If the child is morbidly obese and is an urgent health hazard being in the care of the parent/guardian the child is to removed from the household until their weight is under control.This nations children are the most vulnerable members of our society. Over feeding a child is nothing short of child abuse the parent/guardian should be held responsible.
