Jessica Leonard from Chicago holds the weight record.
At the age of 7 her weight reached 222 kg.
She could not move on her own and needed the help of her mother, who brought her daughter to such a state.
The classic American version, when an overly loving mother cannot fight the whims and indulges any desire of her daughter.
As a result, the woman simply fed the child unhealthy food.
During the day, Jessica ate foods with a value of 10 thousand calories instead of 1800 (the norm for children of her age).
Moreover, the main diet consisted of fast food: pizza, hamburgers, soda, French fries and other high-calorie food.
The mother of the record-holder in weight also suffered from obesity, though not on such a scale.
The baby overcame the 100-kilogram at the age of 4.
Then the parents began to notice the first health problems of their daughter.
But even this condition of the daughter did not force the mother to become stricter in terms of nutrition.
Thanks to the help of ordinary Americans and doctors, the girl got rid of 140 kilograms.
It took her a year and a half of hard work, diets and ivs.
Now the baby who had the status of the fattest child in the world weighs 80 kg.
Of course, this is above the norm, but still the threat to the child’s life has already passed.
This is not the end of Jessica’s struggle.
She still has to go on diets, exercise.
Also, the girl will have to undergo several operations that will help restore the motor ability of the joints of the legs and get rid of excess skin.
Breastfeeding in Public: A Mother’s Creative Response
Although there has long been discussion around breastfeeding in public, one instance from 2018 still has an impact on moms all over the nation. When Melanie Dudley, a new mother from Texas, breastfed her three-month-old son at a restaurant, she became the talk of the town. The following events are both humorous and thought-provoking.
It was 86 degrees outside, and Melanie was covertly nursing her infant. But a man seated close to her felt uneasy and requested her to cover up. Melanie answered with a twist that made everyone in the restaurant laugh, refusing to become defensive. Laughter from bystanders as she covered her own head with the nursing cover.
Melanie’s unorthodox approach was captured in a photo that rapidly went viral on Facebook, igniting a national dialogue about nursing in public. The tragedy happened in 2018, yet its significance is still relevant today. It draws attention to the current discussion over a mother’s unrestricted right to breastfeed her child.
In addition to showcasing Melanie’s sense of humor, her innovative technique brought attention to an important topic: respecting women’s autonomy and the natural act of breastfeeding. It serves as a reminder that society need to encourage and support moms as they face the difficulties of parenthood.
Breastfeeding is a lovely, organic process that has many advantages for both mother and child. Regardless matter where they are, it is imperative to provide a space where moms feel at ease caring for their infants. Promoting the wellbeing of moms and their infants requires providing support and understanding.

Let’s keep pushing for the right to breastfeed in public and making sure that all mothers experience support and empowerment. We can all benefit from a more accepting and understanding society if we work together.
