[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only who who squirms at this post because it sounds as if OP is a little overly concerned with weight, and is quietly demonizing her older daughter for being "the fat one?"[/quote] I think you are. I'm overweight and was an overweight kid. And my mother made an issue of it daily. If not more. I didn't get the idea the OP was really concerned about that, but showing that her two kids are "very" different in temperament. That's all. Having said that, daily exercise is important for 'everyone' regardless of weight or athletic ability. It's important for health. Personally I think that's what the OP was trying to get at. [/quote] PP again. I added the info about my weight and history to give context -- I am usually very sensitive to parents picking on their kids for weight. I didn't feel that here, though.[/quote]
