• According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over the past three decades the childhood obesity rate has more than doubled for preschool children aged 2-5 years and adolescents aged 12-19 years, and it has more than tripled for children aged 6-11 years. ("Prevalence of Overweight and Obesity Among Children and Adolescents: United States,    1999-2002"; Oct. 6, 2004)
• Overweight adolescents have a 70 percent chance of becoming overweight or obese adults.  This increases to 80 percent if one or more parent is overweight or obese. (United States Department of Health and Human Services)
• Making a difference with childhood obesity must begin with prevention that includes parent education.
