According to KXAN's article Texas, libraries work against child obesity Texas libraries are going to receive educational books that will support the fight for childhood diabetes. The 910 states libraries and 1000+ elementary schools are in line to get fitness and nutritional information books.
Diabetes is a horrible disease that effects people in more ways than one especially in children. It leads to insecurities, and a lifetime of medical conditions. Obesity in children is a sad situation. For the most part children do not get a say in what they eat. They eat what there parents put in front of them. Unfortunately, in todays world most "quick" food to make is full of sugars and processed chemicals.
A more educated society might lead to less children suffering from obesity, and getting diabetes. No child should have to worry about going to the nurses office and having there blood sugar checked, sadly obesity is not the only cause of Diabetes is children, some kids are born with it. However, if we could cut out diabetes caused by obesity it would save families so much money, time and worry.
