In our neighbor there lives a family consists of husband,wife and three children.The husband works as a government contractor and has a good earnings.Last Monday,tragedy struck their family and their eldest child died after some illness.She had been terminally ill for the past few days. The reason was that she was very fat and constant pressure to look good,beautiful and slim by kith and kin put tremendous pressure on her .She without the knowledge of her family started taking some slimming capsules which had put bad effect on her health.She lost her appetite,her digestion system became worse from bad and later her liver had got damaged and she was diagnosed with severe jaundice. She was just 23 years old and she died within a few days .It was very shocking because i have seen that girl since her childhood and she was very bright . She was of marriageable age and the continuous nagging by others that unless she would have the perfect shape,she would not be able to find a good groom ended the life from earth.

This was surely a very sad incident and the family must be having very bad time. I think that instead of putting pressure at marriageable age we need to keep a check on our children from the beginning itself so that they maintain their body and figure well.
