Are fat kids with parents that are both in shape/average as rare as I am imagining? I can't think of any examples out of my friends or family.

I've seen husky kids, but not really fat kids.

It's a form of rebellion. Probably beats them changing genders.

Sometimes I will see a fat teenage daughter with a MILF mom. I am thinking the mom tries to push the daughter to be like her and then she rebels or gets depressed.

And why is it when you see kids who are clearly overweight, it never fails that they have some sugary or fatty treat in their hands? Why do the parents not take note and say "no"?

Absolutely incorrect. A child with anxiety/ depression/ will often turn to food to soothe themselves. Especially in the teen years . Mom can keep the house stocked with health nut food and the child can have snickers and chips hidden in the room and eat burgers on the way home from school . Binge eating is a real thing and done in private, especially with girls.Talk to anybody who works with overweight kids and they will tell you they see a fit family with one outlier child all the time. That said, it's far more likely that fat kids have fat parents .

My sister (no pics) was chunky growing up. Both our parents are normal size. She grew out of it and now if anything is a little on the too thin side.

Kids go through phases. I had a friend growing up who was chubby through middle school then slimmed down to a normal build during high school. His brothers were the same way. Both parents had a normal build.

I've seen it before. Child abuse is my best guess.

Baby fat... Some kids stay chubby until puberty.

People who are in shape don't usually keep junk food around the house. So their kid isn't subjected to fat people food.

Parents are 100% to blame for chubby/fat kids

ETA: I'm talking about kids, not 16-19 year-olds.
