[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids are really disadvantaged by having parents allow them to do anything they want due to fear any instruction or direction will hurt their feelings or upset them. You owe it to your child to teach her how to eat a normal amount of food. It’s not mean to point out what an appropriate portion is or that you shouldn’t take 10 treats. Having her become grossly overweight and not doing anything about it is just cruel. Being overweight will be way worse for her emotional well being than having parents be direct as to what an appropriate amount of food is. Please help your child and start addressing this issue. [/quote] Thank you! Finally someone with a brains! If there are not medica issues, kids should not be overweight. As a parent, I would not just accept the fact that my kids likes cake too much and that’s fine because otherwise she will develop and eating disorder. Will she be happy when she is 18 and overweight? I doubt it.[/quote]
