If a person is obese they are more likely to be 'bullied' or 'made fun of' by other people and may often feel like an outsider. Small children who do not fully understand about hurting people's feelings may react to seeing an obese person in an insensitive way.

As well as the obese person being affected by others around them, obesity has many consequences itself. Such as the person being very self concious about themselves and may avoid going outside if possible. Seeing others more happy with their body will make them jealous and could lead to depression.
