[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]yes he's very overweight (might even be obese didn't weigh him recently) but it doesn't both me too much as he eats a good enough diet and exercises regularly. it doesn't appear to bother him either as far as i can tell. but i'm just wondering if he's handling it on his own. what we've talked about was the fact that he's not 'fit' for his age and needed to do something about it. so not focusing on his size/shape but fitness. [/quote] I understand that it does not bother you that your son is heavy, we all love our kids and easily their faults. This is, make no mistake, a fault in your son. It is simply not OK in our society to be fat. He will earn less, have poorer choices in a mate, have lower self-esteem, have health issues if heavy as an adult. The correlation between fat tween and fat adult is high. Ignoring is not doing him any favors in the long-run.[/quote]
