In this ABC News special—produced in conjunction with
Rodale Inc., publisher of Prevention and Men's Health magazines—nutritionists,
psychologists, pediatricians, and other experts explore the causes of obesity, the
physical and emotional damage it can do, and how parents and schools can team up to help
kids improve their health. Also included is hidden-camera footage of a daring social
experiment in which a slim teen, professionally made up to look obese, goes to school and
experiences firsthand the abuse so often aimed at overweight people. A post-experiment
discussion underscores the stigmatizing effect of intolerance while emphasizing the need
for greater compassion. A teacher's guide is included. (43 minutes, color)
