Some parents believe that watching TV programs lead to over-weight in children.

over-weight → overweight is correct. It falls into closed compounds, not hyphenated ones.

درسته. مورد اول که گفتید درسته. دوم نه کاملا.
Not perfectly?
I’m afraid to say that’s another mistake in your sentence and it should be corrected.

lead to
باید اسم بیاید نه صفت.
Overweightness
You get it wrong.
Overweight can be a noun, too. If you’re not sure, you can look it up in Collins dictionary.
I was aware it should be noun after leads to.
Yo, OK, you’re right. Collins dic. is kinda shit but I’m not intended to capture image of my medical reference book written by American author, Barbara Janson Cohen where it uses overweight as a noun.
Take it easy, be more flexible.
My preferred dic. is Oxford but I make use of other dictionaries too.
My source is long man , I used overweight and examiner corrected.
