Sadly, <he muses in the style of the Daily Mail>, we see more and more of this lack of responsibility for an individuals own actions these days.

I think they should get their GBP22k a year but be required to wear signs at all times in public stating 'too fat and stupid to work'. The Govt should encourage small children to throw fruit and vegetables at them. In these times of recession that kind of amusement has got to be worth 22k a year?;)

I agree. The fruit and veg would be something else they don't have to worry about buying.

To the original post, unless they have a medical condition, a defense does not spring to mend.

Without detracting in the slightest from the general condemnation of the family in question; you don't know very much about genetics, so you?

Well i realise that the kids can share a fat gene with the parents but whats the chances of both parents having a "fat gene"

Assuming there is such a thing as a "fat gene", then that's totally dependent on its prevalence in the general population. Or perhaps a little higher since I imagine fat people are marginally more likely to marry other fat people?
