In this article a eight year old kid who is two hundred pounds was taken away from his house because he was obese Cuyahoga County officials felt that his obesity put him at risk. The question that came up was would it be more beneficial for kids to leave their house for foster care so that they can try to be more healthy or just stay in the same household knowing that the kid may be at risk for the rest of their lives? Arthur Caplan, a professor of bioethics and medical ethics at the University of Pennsylvania says that there could be possibility of a intervention for the kid to be able to eat more healthy in the future.
Does the media portray a bad image to children about what they should eat?
Are parents the ones that need to take responsibility in what their child eats?
Should obease children be brought into foster care to help better their diets so that they can be able to change their diet in the future.
