This is exactly the hope that you have for mini moons. And it's not fat sympathy to feel sorry for a fat 2 year old. I'm sorry but that's child abuse and I feel bad for the toddler. Fat doesn't happen over night so the baby has been systematically abused since birth. I've seen parents give cola in a bottle with a nipple for the baby to suck on and two-three year olds cry for candy at the checkout and get it. That kind of fat behavior that is so prevalent in adults is actually age appropriate for a literal baby. ( instead of grown ass adults that act like children)  So I guess there is the gray area, there's no doubt that by 18 you should have some understanding of calories in calories out, but this is where the fat acceptance movement is really harming society. If a kid sees "both sides" and haes and gehnetiks they might think it's not something they can control. The hope for the mini moons is that somewhere between 13-18 when they're teens who are becoming autonomous they see the light.
