[quote=Anonymous]It's really funny to me that anyone would think the fatass dad saying "don't eat sugar" is actually going to do anything to prevent the kid from being overweight. Both the parent and the teen know they are fat and that cake makes you fat and yet they still eat cake. What the dad should be suggesting is strategies like eating more protein, not having so much junk in the house or buying smaller prepackaged items, more exercise, fulfilling the sweet tooth with fruit. It sounds like you need some kind of counseling with techniques to reframe issues in a healthy way. You need to push back and say "ok, then what do you suggest we eat instead?" "Please tell me what items to put on the grocery list this week instead of your favorite cookies and ice cream."[/quote]
