The current study aims to find out The Effect of Genetics on the Risk of Childhood Obesity in KSA, It has been used A cross-sectional descriptive study methodology would involve collecting data from a sample of children at a single point in time to examine the relationship between genetics and childhood obesity risk. The study would use statistical analysis to determine the prevalence of childhood obesity in the sample population, as well as the association between genetic factors and obesity risk. The study sample consisted of The population of the study is all children who are at risk of developing obesity due to genetic factors (children aged 6-12 years living in KSA)., and we select random sample with size 200 of echildren who are at risk of developing obesity due to genetic factorse, 200 questionnaires were distributed to the research population and 188 questionnaires are received, and the following tables illustrated the properties of the samples. And The study reached results, the most important of which are: 1- Parents of children showed similar levels of interest and willingness to participate in genetic testing for obesity-related genes. There was no significant difference in parental attitudes towards genetic testing. 2- Children perceive similar benefits from undergoing genetic testing for obesity-related genes. These benefits include gaining insight into personal health risks, receiving tailored interventions, and understanding the role of genetics in obesity prevention.
