Abstract

The article informs that kids share their struggles with obesity. While experts debate what's causing the four-fold rise in childhood obesity over the past 25 years, kids are left to deal with the stigma and the health problems. According to a fat kid, Katie Clark, 13, from Kingsley, Iowa, people will say anything that comes to mind. They'll make fun of how she laugh or what she is doing or make fun of her being in marching band.
