Abstract

Group discussions with obese teenagers and parents with obese children are the empirical basis of this research project. The results indicate that 'being fat' is primarily a social experience. Consequently, preventive measures to inhibit unhealthy lifestyle habits fail to go into sufficient depth. Overweight adolescents call for equality; they demand a more equal treatment in social interactions and relations.
