June Shannon, aka Mama June of "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo," has come under fire again – this time for her daughter's weight.

In Wednesday's episode of "The Doctors," physician Travis Stork criticizes Shannon for enabling the weight gain of her 9-year-old daughter, Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson.

"I'm going to be honest: You need to take some responsibility here," Stork says.

"I want to see a bit of a light bulb, where you say, 'Maybe I can do better. ... Maybe I can do a heck of a lot better.'"

"It's not the fact that we can't change and support and be able to change stuff," Shannon says. “It’s just someone needs to show, 'OK, here, this is what we need to do.'"

Alana, who weighs 125 pounds, says she loves deep-fried foods – especially fried Oreos – and her favorite exercise is a "belly flop."

Alana also reportedly has a music video coming out soon.
