Obesity News: Canadian Man Denied Custody Of His Children Because He Is Too Fat by Nobody: 3:31pm On Jun 22, 2012
An obese Canadian man, who weighs in at 360 pounds, says his obesity is the reason he was not given custody of his 2 kids. But, as Canada's CTV pointed out in a report, there may be more weight to the story than he's letting on.
The 38-year-old man's two kids, 5 and 6, were taken from the home of his estranged wife last year. She has mental health issues, may have overdosed and was hospitalized. The man tried to get custody of the children but in a decision on Wednesday, a family court judge ruled they must be adopted out.

One of the reasons was that he is too fat, and can’t take care of his children.

To protest the court ruling, he plans to go on a hunger strike.
