Even thought childhood obesity is not only the parents' fault but the child's as well, having a strong parent who help promote healthy eating and exercise can help with the health problems that will occur during there lifetime. Childhood obesity can affect a child for the rest of their life unless hey receive some type of help or change their eating habits.

first i think you need to define strong supportive parent/

Do you think most single parent households have good parents ? What is a good parent ? Can a single parent be a good parent why or why not ? Are both parents still involved or is just one? How are the parents involved ?

List some ideas.

Then list the pros and cons of a single parent household

pros
-freedom

cons
-lack of parental support
-no structure
-isolation

Then, develop a major idea.

eg.

-lack of social bonds
-spending time with em
-taking em to games
-providing a positive role model
-providing structure
-caring for them
-you could talk about the problems of isolate teens for instance. They spend all their time online.

To formulate your paper into 1500 words, you can expand on each of the points you have already identified. Here's a breakdown of how you can develop your paper based on the provided outline:
