[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The word "militant" shouldn't be anywhere in your vocabulary when speaking about your child's (your DAUGHTER'S) eating habits. This is how your breed disorder. [/quote]

By militant I mean I (and DH) offer junk food in moderation, unlike some of the adults in her life who literally bought a dozen donuts and expected her to eat them all.[/quote]

That's not what militant means. Please do some soul searching about your feelings towards food and weight in relation to your daughter. [/quote]

I promise you that my in-laws think I am militant about food because I don't think a small child should be given more donuts and cheesecake in one sitting than a typical adult eats in one day. It's all relative.[/quote]

Again, you seem to have a lot of hang-ups about weight and food. No one is asking what your in-laws feed your child. We are talking about what YOU feed your child, because you came here and asked for advice. My advice? Stop being "militant" (your words) or you're going to end up with a child with an eating disorder.

What I am hearing you say is either that:

A. I should not set limits on how much junk food my child eats or
B. My use of the word "militant" on an anonymous forum reveals some deep seeded food issues that will inevitably lead my child to have an eating disorder.

Sorry but I'm gonna call TROLL
