Child Abuse?
Alexander Draper, 14, of South Carolina is in foster care after his mom, Jerri Gray, was arrested for child endangerment -- for letting him get so big that his life may be in danger. Gray's lawyers argue that the 555-pound Alexander became obese because Gray worked night shifts, and it was nearly impossible to provide him with nutritious meals. They also say the boy gained the weight from school where he could eat large quantities of unhealthy food.
