A Cleveland third grader who weighed more than 200 pounds was taken from his mother after officials reportedly said she did not do enough to help the boy, who suffered from a weight-related health issue, to lose weight.They are trying to make it seem like I am unfit, like I dont love my child, the boys mother, who was not identified, told the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Its a lifestyle change and they are trying to make it seem like I am not embracing that. It is very hard, but I am trying.
Officials first became aware of the boys weight after his mother took him to the hospital last year while he was having breathing problems, the newspaper reported. The child was diagnosed with sleep apnea and began to be monitored by social workers while he was enrolled in a program called Healthy Kids, Healthy Weight at the Rainbow Babies & Childrens Hospital.
