Eating faster, chewing food less thoroughly, and being more responsive to stimuli associated with food but less responsive to internal hunger cues are all characteristics of children who are

Obese

Explanation:

Obesity can occur at any age but in recent times more and more children are becoming obese. They develop an unhealthy relationship with food from a young age. Food rather than being a source of nutrition becomes just a source of sensory stimulation.

These children often chew very fast and swallow food without properly breaking it down. Thus they are not able to realize when they are full. They ignore the internal cues for hunger or fullness and keep eating to satisfy their palate. As a result, they become obese.
