Paragraph One
Jennifer Robinson argues that the number of overweight kids in the United States has double in the last 20 years. She claims that overweight kids are beset with problems not just physical but also emotional. Robinson develops this claim by first explaining to us that television has played a major role in why we are obese. Robinson explains to us that it bombards them with ads for juck food, which then diverts them from what they are eating. Lastly the author explains to us that schools and parents are starting to notice. Jennifer Robinson’s purpose is to inform us about the heath ricks, and the emotional toll on children. He does this in order to create a better future for children.
Paragraph Two
The author of this article does not state her occupation. I believe that this author has no official recantation regarding the topic of child and teen obesity. I believe that the author was able to find the evidence to support her issue but has not conducted the research herself. I believe that this is subjective. I think that the author uses strong bias. I believe this by that way she argues about this issue. I think she leaves out the information specifically about the schools and the way the lunches are at the school. I believe that she left this out becuase she was not fully aware of what schools are serving during lunch.I think that this research assisted me but it is not as strong as my second article. I think that the target audience was parents that have children that are obese.
"Obesity Prevention In Early Adolescence: Student, Parent, And Teacher Views."
Paragraph One
Tomas Power, Ruth Bindler, Summer Goetz, and Kenneth Daratha argue that obesity is a major health problem among today’s youth. They claim that most school-based programs in areas have limited success. The authors develop this claim by the information they have gotten from focus groups that were created. The authors inform us by saying that approximately 17 percent of us youth is overweight. Another 16 percent are at risk of becoming over weight. The authors purpose is to imform americans that teens are over weight. In order to get children heathly we need to provide heathly alternatives.
Paragraph Two
The authors’ connection to the topic is close. They are studying the effects of teen and child obesity. I believe that their opinions could be put into their work but the academic article is mainly facts and data that they have collected. I believe that there is much evidence in this article. I believe so because it shows us the data and work that they had collected during the experiment. This article is objective. The author included tables and numbers that were collected during the experiment. The source can be useful for many health scientists and may be useful to some doctors in this field of study. This research has greatly helped me. I was able to take much information and use it for key points. It really answered many of my research questions.
"Child And Adolescent Obesity: Why We Need To Fight!."Paragraph One
The author agrues that obesity is a well-reconized disease. He claims that obesity has long-term risk factor that can lead into adulthood. He devleops his cliam by expaining that there are cardiovascular risk facters to obese children. He then expalins that there is an increased risk of mortality from obesity. Lastly the author expains the increased risk of type two diabetes that can come with being obese. The author’s purpose is to expalin that there are many health risks that can come from being obese.
Paragraph Two
The author connects to the topic not as greatly as my second article. I believe that the authors bias is more heavily stated in this article. There is sold evidence and is supported by facts. I think the author was trying to get their point across rather than actually paying attention to the issue at hand. This article is subjective. The author includes facts such as the percentage of teens and children obese. He also explains that risk of morality and the risk for diabetes. I think the article would be useful to teachers that are trying to show children the risk of obesity. This article gave me very little information. I believe that this article has given me the least information.
