[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even with all their good intentions, I have never seen a parent try to get their kid to have a “healthier” weight without it backfiring. The kid just gets a complex and their eating habits get worse. I had a pot belly at that age and my mom parents made comments about it. Later my figure kind of morphed into a traditionally attractive one and I have the same figure today but my parents words will not go away and I feel like I’ll have body insecurity forever. [/quote] There have been several posts about this subject and the modern approach to overweight or obese children seems to be to increase fruits and veggies first before the rest of the meal is eaten.
