The obesity rate of children from poor families is nearly twice as high as that of children from rich families, according to statistics from a Chinese health department. According to government data released in December 2012, more than 24.3 percent of 11-year-olds from poor families were overweight, compared with 13.7 percent of children from affluent families. As a result, experts believe that the poorer the family, the more likely children are to be overweight.
The statement 'Children from poor families often attend different schools from those from rich families' best supports the conclusion.
