[quote=Anonymous]I would get them one. There's nothing bad about them setting fitness goals (however many thousands of steps) or keeping track of their sleep. It's a good setup for a healthy future I have a 13yo and we have started discussing macros and how he needs so much of all types of nutrients each day. He didn't realize how much fat and carbs (we really only worry about sugar grams) is in things like gelato or pizza. He has watched my eating habits pretty closely the past year and is making good choices on his own now. He is using a fitbit this summer and continues to ask questions about foods. He told me yesterday that we couldn't have pizza for lunch, go paddle boarding, then have cupcakes because it wasn't healthy. We could have either pizza or cupcakes in one day. I believe in giving kids tools to succeed and then setting them free.[/quote]
