Abstract     Childhood obesity is disease sue generis and is background for development of different illlness in further life. If obesity could be predicted it could be prevented in most cases and degenerative and chronic disease caused by it avoided. But such prediction is very complex medical and sociological problem. A new generation of artificial neural network is applied to handle this difficult problem successfully.
