Research has also shown: parents of overweight children often do not recognize that there is a problem with their child’s weight

The researchers draw attention to the fact that professionals working to curb the obesity epidemic must take into account the fact that overweight or obese relatives may not necessarily be able to make appropriate decisions about body weight, since they may not even be aware that their child is obese. . Overweight parents are more likely to be more tolerant of their child’s weight, exposing them to the health risks associated with being overweight.
