[quote=Anonymous]My kids are in middle school and not yet teens but kids are going to eat junk food, whether we try to control it or not especially when they are outside of the home. The key is the level of activity. It does not sound like your son is active in sports or motivated to exercise on his own or with others. I keep wondering what went wrong early on. Most kids fall into sports early and stay in through high school. Although I'm old at 50, I was always active. I took ballet for 9 years and played tennis through high school. You don't mention sports at all as if your DS never played any and is not interested. What does he do after school and during his free time? My son likes video games but would much rather be shooting hoops with friends or practicing lacrosse. I think your DS is gaining weight because he is too sedentary.[/quote]
