[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m amazed that cold symptoms are normal daily part of winter. Ni, it’s not normal to have such frequent colds. But you can thank other parents for your kid catching them so often.[/quote]

I think it's because the kids are fed crap.  Tons of quick, processed convenience foods and not enough fresh veggies.  Also, not enough rest time or sleep.

There's a kid on my DD's team who is always sick.  She'll get over one cold and have a few days before catching another one.  This kid is maxed out... home from school, off to a lesson, off to practice, off to dance, home for a bath and bedtime.  Rinse and repeat each night.  There isn't one night during the week where she doesn't have 2 or 3 activities after school.  The mom is always dropping her off with either fast food or some processed crap to quickly eat before practice begins.

There is zero benefit of having your kids in a sport or an academic extracurricular to be healthy if in order to participate in those those things they must fill their bodies with junk food and forego the appropriate amount of sleep for a kid their age.  [/quote]

The food isn't the issue.  You sound really nasty to slam her and her family when maybe the child is pushing for all the activities.  [/quote]
