No parents in sight, just young children fending for themselves in the hot sun. Children who have never been given a warm bath, these children are covered in filth. These children do not have a chance; they do not have an opportunity for education. These children have no one to teach them of God’s everlasting love.…

    It will be emphasized that the issue of child combatants should be examined in the context of national, political and social problems faced by the government of Uganda. Cheney’s article, Our Children Have Only Known War: Children’s Experiences and the Uses of Childhood in Northern Uganda, offers critical perspectives on childhood exploitation as state-inspired violence.

    Fast Food Restaurants Marketing Strategies Effects on Childhood and Adolescent Obesity

    Obesity has become an increasing problem since the 1970s - 1980s. Every person in the United States – men and women, young and old, white or back – has become exposed to the influences of obesity. The big concern is that children and young adults are beginning to follow in the footsteps of “big” role models of their time. According to the American Obesity Association, 127 million Americans are overweight, 60 million are obese and 9 million are considered “severely obese”– this is only for adults. Currently, an estimated 17.6 million children under age 5 are said to be overweight (Spurlock, 2005, p. 66). The New Hampshire Third Grade Healthy Smiles – Healthy Growth Survey was conducted in 2008-2009; collected the heights and weights to gather a baseline data and plan related interventions. In all, 81 randomly selected New Hampshire public schools participated in the survey – 3,151 third grade students. The survey found that 34 percent were overweight or obese (Childhood Obesity in New Hampshire 2008-2009, 2010, para. 1).…
