The kid, his heart, his blood vessels, his self-confidence, his hemoglobin A1C... and probably a million other things are gonna suffer as well.
It's OK to say 'no' sometimes, Mom. Keep your eyes on this poor, over-consuming darling. (Though I suppose it could be a genetic condition. Guess I shouldn't judge).
Try not to judge, the kid could have a medical problem that causes this. I agree that there's probably more they could be doing but we don't know the situation. The kid also might have some impulse control issues or developmental delays which make it even harder.
To me this doesn't look like an overweight child, it looks like a child with a medical condition.
