[|Human|] Hello. My cousins son is 6 years old and about 4 ft. tall, he weighs 120 lbs. I know this is dangerously obese, but we can t seem to get them to understand that. How can we help her to realize the seriousness and danger in this? I have even shared my own weight and age with her which is 42 year old female, 5 ft 1 in. and 120 lbs but that doesn t seem to help her understand weight height and age either. Her son and I weigh the same. Her son is trying, he say s he is uncomfortable, he gets sick often and gets tired quickly. He can t keep up with other kids his age when playing normal children playground activities so sometimes he just prefers not to join in at all. She has taken him to see his pediatrician and was told that he is over weight and she has tried to start helping him, but at the same time still gives into old food eating habits and has absolutely no support from her mother . her mothers husband, or her sister whom her son is around regularly. How can we help them understand how dangerous and serious this is? My cousin has recently received a call from the school notifying her that her son arrived at school with a carmel frappaccino twice now, and it was actually her mothers husband that bought it and dropped him off at school with it. The people I have mentioned are all over weight probabley considered obese. Her mothers husband actually has diabetes and high blood pressure but even that fact doesn t seem to give them a reality check. How much should a 6 year old boy at 4 feet weigh? Is there any informational dvd s that we can recommend that they watch to help them understand? Thank you for your time.
[|AI|]  A 6-year-old child should have his weight about 45 pounds +/- 5, 120 pounds is morbid obesity and should be investigated carefully.a few tests should be done first to evaluate the severity, including fasting lipid profile and blood sugar, HBA1C, thyroid function test and sonography of his liver .risk estimation should help his doctors to decide if he should be on medications.actual psychotherapy is helpful in some cases, watching videos will not aid much. I hope this helps
