Children taken from parents for being fat

Social services faced outrage yesterday for taking four obese children from their parents.



The couple have lost a three-year battle with the authorities and their youngest children – girls aged 11, seven and one, and a boy of five – will either be ‘fostered without contact’ or adopted.



The move follows a failed attempt to solve the children’s weight problem by putting the family in a ‘Big Brother’ house, having a social worker present to monitor all meal times, and imposing a curfew and strict rules about their lifestyle.

The social services admits they failed this family. The social worker was incompetent to deal with this. This family needs a licensed nutritionist to educate them on how to prepare healthy meals. They also all need to be tested for a genetic disorder that may be causing the obesity problem. Do they think by removing the children from their parents it will result in the children losing weight? This is disgusting and I hope and pray this family can be reunited and get the proper help they need.

If they went through all that trouble and failed, how could it be the parents' fault?
