Stop buying junk. If all they do is eat, make it so that they only eat healthy foods. And you are the parent--make them work out! Go on a walk with them. Tell them to go outside and play.

My daughter is the same way. She got to the point where all she did was eat and had absolutely no exercise. She went from weighing around 90 pounds (already overweight to begin with) to 120 pounds. She still won't exercise or anything and she is still overweight. I can't seem to convince her to lose weight. She is now at 5'6 and weighs 210 pounds! I need advice also.
