I don't think anybody believes there are positive results from obesity in children or from obesity in general.
Some negative effect of obesity in children:
- Obese children are at risk for suffering from many illnesses, such as diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and increased risk for having coronary heart disease when adults.
- Depression and poor self esteem due to their appearance and to possible abuse from other kids or estrangement feelings of the other kids.
