Ohio Officials Take 200-Pound Boy From Mother

The case of an 8-year-old boy taken from his family because he weighs more than 200 pounds (90 kilograms) has renewed a U.S. debate on whether parents should lose custody if a child is severely obese.

The boy was removed from his family and was placed in foster care in October after county case workers in Ohio said his mother wasn’t doing enough to control his weight.
