No way. Find other more nutritious snacks. I believe that if parents have an overweight child, then it's their fault for setting a poor example and eating unhealthy foods themselves. Their child wouldn't be fat if fattening foods weren't in the house being eaten by everyone else. A child's health is important and should be taken seriously by the parents who are responsible.

Letting your children get obese is tantamount to child abuse. There's no reason any active child should be overweight. I witness many mothers putting coke or sprite into baby bottles. These parents should be arrested. A lot of children in the Latino community are overweight because of parental ignorance. They buy into every fast-food commercial and don't have any clue as to eating healthy. Obesity is now a global problem because of ignorance. Forget about pushing the cupcake away, it shouldn't even be in the house. Stop equating food for our children as comfort. Forget the cupcakes and fill the house up with whole foods that come from nature and you'll never have to worry about overweight children.

It amazes me how so many kids are overweight these days. I live right next to a high school and at least half of the kids I see every day are overweight. I think they don't need cupcakes at all. It's really sad, considering the health problems they will face being overweight.

It's the old thing where a larger baby was considered healthier but that's not true. The breast fed babies tend to be thinner adults and children. So when a child is upset don't feed them junk give them the attention they need and especially fun physical activity. It takes money and time to put them into swimming or something that they love. The parents have to completely eliminate junk food out of the house!

When i see overweight children i want to slap their parents. I will definitely find something healthier to give to them, like the phone number of a good doctor

My feelings are that I hope that they have someone in their lives who is compassionate and responsible enough to take control of the situation and get them the help they need. Your cupcake comment made me laugh though! :)

Usually tend to get pissed at the parents for giving into them and feeding junky foods to shut them up, but in some cases it's an extreme medical condition. Saw a documentary about an English kid named Archie who was huge, but not b/c he ate un-nutritious food.

My kids hate me for it, but I get on their @ss about what they eat. No way in hell will I be a mother of fat kids. Lazy @ss parents can't tell their kid to put the cookie down or go outside and play. she's probably just a big @ss fattie herself!
