OMFG, she's FAT!!!

Well, yes.
Certainly I don't mean that regarding height.
But a kid that fat is being fed too much.
The fat doesn't form it's self out of thin air no matter what is wrong with thier hormones.

Unless the body misappropriates the vast majority of it's intake to fat storage rather than bone and muscle growth. In which case you get the opposite of that "Mighty Mouse" Germany baby who has very little body fat and a whole lot of muscle:

Even a special diet in such a polar opposite case would yeild an obese child, no matter how specialized the diet, unless you malnourished the child.

Let's break this down... I've seen people who had serious problems. Pituitary conditions, ogreism, giantism.

Then I've seen people who had supposed "disorders".

But regardless, if you eat salad and run 10 miles a day... you WILL lose weight. Or die because your body won't let you get nourished properly. One or t'other.

But yeah, odds are this kid's mother is abusing her in a terrible way. Did you see the mother shoveling soda into her?
