Parents' Perception Of Whether Their Children Are Under Or Overweight: More Than 4 In 10 Are Wrong

Curious. It is surprising that only about 40% of parents are that stupid.

That makes the remainder of the child abusers even more malignant in their treatment of children.
"More than four in 10 parents with underweight and overweight children mistakenly believe their children are in the average weight range, according to University of Melbourne research...

The study, by doctoral researcher Dr Pene Schmidt, also finds that children who are not in the average weight range, are also more likely to over or underestimate their body size."
Apparently, the stupid apple does not fall far from the stupid tree.

Stop the child abuse.
