HiPlease check this essay for me.The growing number of overweight people is putting a strain on the healthcare system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved.Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum.To what extent do you agree or disagree?Some people are of the opinion that health problems related to overweight can be most effectively controlled by increasing physical education lessons in the school curriculum. I partially agree with this view. While the increase in such lessons can help children maintain a healthy physique, support of parents is essential in this matter.Physical education lessons in the form of teacher talk will help children understand the importance of maintaining the recommended body mass index(BMI). By increasing these lessons, children’s understanding of the problems of overweight will only get reinforced.  Further, as the frequency of outdoor activities such as games like football and basketball, and physical exercises increases, it will provide children more opportunities to use up the excessive fat stored their bodies.  This will gradually ease the burden of the healthcare system in dealing with the problems of overweight.Parents have a decisive in controlling the overweight of their children. While knowledge of harmful effects of being overweight and physical activities can help children in controlling their weight, the role of nutritious diet which includes whole grains, nuts and fruits in maintaining a healthy and fit physique is indispensable. On one hand, some parents cannot afford such a diet, and on the other wealthy parents either find it difficult to control their children’s indiscriminate consumption of sugared beverages and highly processed food such as burgers and pizzas, or overlook this practice.In all, we can say that while increase in physical education lessons enables children appreciate the health hazards of being overweight and provide ways to control their weight, the role of parents in ensuring that their children consume healthy food can never be dispensed with.

vsureshThe growing number of overweight people is putting a strain on the healthcare system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved.
Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Let's read the instructions very carefully. Most of your essay was off-target.

First, the topic is "people who are fat or obese". It does not say "children who are fat or obese." It is people of all ages.

Second, the suggested solution is more exercise programs in the schools - secondary school and high school. This is aimed at children who have not yet graduated high school. They are 16 or younger.

Third, it asks how much you agree with the suggestion.

When I brainstorm this task, I think to myself "will adding Physical Education (PE) classes to children's daily activities in school help the people in the general population or in the workforce to lose weight and get fit? "

Those are the ones who are putting a burden on the healthcare system, not the children. They have developed bad eating habits along with an unhealthy lifestyle with little or no exercise, and a large percentage will have diabetes and early signs of heart disease, which is closely associated with obesity. They may have been fit and trim in high school, even a star player on the football team, but once they start working they do not exercise very much and they rely on fast food, both because of stress and time constraints.

This "so called" solution is not aimed at the target population which is the root cause of the problem. It will do little or nothing to ease the strain on the healthcare system, especially in the short term. Therefore, I completely disagree that the proposed solution will make a significant dent in ameliorating the problem; other measures should be considered.
