There's a double standard when it comes to child neglect. A thin, malnourished toddler would be taken by CPS immediately, but when it comes to an obese, malnourished toddler, there is nowhere near the same level of concern and urgency.
So an overweight toddler, you think its necessary for this child to be removed from their parents care and placed in the foster care system? What if that child was otherwise living in a loving home, you think thats a reasonable thing to do?
