Obese children are 10 times as likely as children of normal weight to suffer from sleep disorders. The problem which leads to snoring and constant sleep interruptions is caused by the tonsils of obese children getting enlarged and blocking the windpipe. What do you think? Any comment.

I think it is a reasonable suggestion. My son is obese and he snores. I got him checked up by the physician and specialists. They said he should exercise to reduce weight. He is doing exercises and eats a lot. I needed more description on the above topic.
