The correct answer is: Risk of not being able to reduce their weight.

Childhood obesity is harmful because children might struggle to lose weight even later on in adolescence and adulthood. Being obese or overweight is harmful for health since it increases the likelihood of suffering from harmful lifestyle diseases such as coronary heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, etc. 

Actually the correct answer is D.) Risk of Bone Fractures. "Obese children experience breathing difficulties, increased risk of fractures, hypertension, early markers of cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and psychological effects."

I just took the test and B was incorrect, so i re took it and chose D and got it correct. Hope this helps!!! :)
