[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For other parents of 10 - 13 year old boys, are you really finding that if you let your kids snack, they don't come to meals hungry? This was a concern for me when my kids were little, but honestly, I think that my 10 and 13 year olds could eat an entire meal at 6 p.m. and if I served a second meal at 7:00 they'd eat just the same. [/quote] Most 13-year-olds, boys in particular, can eat a horse and then eat a cow 2 hours later. We have rail frail wasps here projecting their own food issues onto their kids. It comes out of fear that another wasp frail friend might comment that her kid "gasp" might have pudged up! (read, his collar bone is not protruding like he just left drug addiction program) Then, we get a post wondering why her kid gained a few and is no longer 70lbs at 13 years old! And how to get him to lose a bit of a belly! Yes, we really have posts like that stating that a kid has man boobs and is not even 90lbs![/quote]
