This Poor Baby. If his parents are the cause of his weight, his height would not be a part of it. If he has an illness, then get him some help. Don't put him on here, and call him names, and bully him. He'll see this picture one day, and how will he react. Please help get him a diagnosis, before he's any older. Don't bully him. I have a precious grandson, who is 3 1/2 and weighs around 50 lbs of solid weight. But is no taller than other kids his age. We are trying to change his diet, and help him, so he won't be made fun of. So please help this little guy.

honors classes? Try you're, not your.

If you're an honors student, you should know the difference between "your" and "you're."

I'm = I am

Why do jackasses always make political comments about non-political stories?

Hey,that's a start!!!

It's astonishing how childish the Right has become. "Michelle Obama wants children to eat healthy food? Well, then, I'm against children having healthy food! Healthy food is wrong! Carrots and apples are bad because Democrats think they're good!"

Do you ever really listen to yourself?

His mother is obviously worried about his weight. Why would she advocate the Little Emperor syndrome if she's seeking help from doctors?
A "good amount of U.S. children" also have obesity in genetics. For most kids, being obese isn't a choice.

This child obviously has some extreme genetic disorder. I hope that his parents can find some help. You would be correct in saying that a certain amount of kids' obesity is from genetics. But even with a genetic tendency toward obesity (ie diabetes or thyroid problems) it can be avoided with a healthier diet. For most kids who are obese, obesity isn't a choice because their parents have made that choice for them.

I am inclined to agree with Sam,, this child, if you re-read the article has a disease,,his weight is not his only problem,,so is his height...This poor child is bigger in everyway than a normal 3 yr old. I commend his mother for seeking help in medical attention for this young man. As for the whole political thing being thrown in,,,your comment had nothing to do with the issue at hand..
