Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
The twenty-first-century children are more prone to serious illnesses such as obesity, diabetes which were earlier only meant for grown-ups. A sedentary lifestyle and increased consumption of fast food are the two most evident reasons for this situation, which can be overcome by adopting a healthy lifestyle by an individual and creating awareness among parents.
Current generation adolescents are highly attracted to the technology that has made them a couch potato. They spend most of their day playing video games and surfing on the internet. Due to this, they are becoming lazy and gaining unnecessary weight. As per the survey of the Indian health organization, for instance, more than 51 % of children in India are suffering from overweight due to their addiction to mobile games and social media. To handle this problem, parents need to encourage their children to participate more in outdoor activities, which could boost their energy levels and stamina that will make them active. This would aid to prevent young ones to gain more weight.
Another cause is that the younger generation mostly prefers to consume junk and ready-made food. They are fascinated by International snacks such as pizzas, burgers, and French fries. All these items contain huge calories and consequently making them prone to several ailments. To tackle the issue, the government should launch a public campaign in the media and schools to educate teenagers about the harmful effects of unhealthy diets. It will shed some light on the difficult situation and allow them to be more attentive and honest about it. To illustrate, the said initiative in japan resulted in a 48 % decrease in obesity in their children.
In conclusion, educating youngsters about the evils of junk food, and motivating them towards physical activities are the most practical ways to control the issue of rising fatness among them.
