Teens, parents may not see a weight problem

Hey, it's deja "view" all over again.
"Many parents of children classified as overweight or even extremely overweight do not perceive their child as being excessively heavy, with some wrongly believing that their child is "about the right weight," new research suggests.

In addition, if the parent fails to perceive a weight issue, odds are the child will also fail to see a problem.

These findings are 'important' and 'troublesome,' the researchers say in their report in the medical journal Diabetes Care, because recognition that a child is overweight is a critical first step to making diet and lifestyle changes to promote weight loss."

It is also deja-buse, nutritional child abuse that is, all over again.
