TLC used to have programs like that - there were two different series,
each with a different nutritionist-host. They would show how the fat
kids would look as variously-aged adults. Sometimes the family would
appear to be successful in changing habits, and sometimes not.

I don't understand why parents don't learn to say, "No," more often?
Kids, especially toddlers, really don't have any rights except for
housing, sufficient food, and clothing. They shouldn't be ruling the
roost.

The new definitions of obese make that toddler AND her mom look
obese. Look at the baby's neck fat, arm fat and the big crease at her
wrist. Some of this is "baby fat," but seeing mom's face and neck, I
would guess the whole family is pudgy/fat/obese, and the mom's just in
denial.
