Yes, as far as I can see pundits suggest his size is down to overfeeding .. while the doctors treaing him say he dwarfs children of his age in height as well as weight, and that there is likely to be a hormonal reason, as you say. The problem might be exaccerbated by an indulgent mother/family, but he's significantly taller than his peer age group. Certainly not a child to joke about imo as so many internet sites featuring ths story seem to have done. His heart is unlikely to hold out long if the problem isn't diagnosed and dealt with.

Btw, that's not to suggest anyone else has either. With this child, imo, it may be a case of sh*t happens. I'm more concerned, if this is the case,with a family who would allow this child's picture posted in the media ! Look at him. He's surrounded by these lovely little Asian children and then there he is, looking, powers forgive me for saying so of a child who can't help itself, hideous ! And if the family had nothing to do with the posting, if I were them, I'd find me a good attorney who will sue the a$$ off whomever did ! It's a shame really.

Whether it's glandular or not, the kid is fat and a lot of that fat could be lost by eating better and doing more exercise before his heart gives out.

It's so easy to change your diet too. I used to hate fruit and vegtables, and now I love them. You should eat three good meals everyday; Morning, Afternoon and Evening. It's picking at snacks is what adds to the problem in my opinion. But I do believe that some people are prone to gaining weight more easily than others.

Why doesn't the food you get in McDonalds, look like it does in the advertisements? Talk about codding the public, there's a prime example.

They use Hoki here in New Zealand.

If anyone has any doubts how bad McDonalds is for you, here's a clip of a woman that looks like a smacked up crack whore, going nucking futs for some McNuggets but couldn't have any because it was breakfast time, and then attacking the drive-thru attendent.

Maybe McDonalds is her drug of choice, considering all the shit they put in their food.

Oh, that reminds me of a story ...

... many years ago I was in a Wendy's in the USA, ordering some burger meal. The girl behind the counter was probably 5 foot tall and 16 stone. She asks "Do you want to 'Go Large'". I said yes ...

... so she disappears to be replaced by another girl who completed my order. She was a few inches taller but many many inches wider.

It was all I could do to keep a straight face. I was even looking round for the hidden TV cameras as I was convinced it was a wind-up!
