[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 7 yo has gained lots of weight. She is chubby and her belly is visible as well as there is plenty of fat around her chest so she basically looks like she has tiny boobs. I did take her to our pediatrician who confirmed it is not early puberty, it is just fat tissue. She refuses to eat veggies and fruits. She asks about desserts all the time. I was reading the other thread here on how you shouldn’t tell the kids that food can make them fat. So…. What am I supposed to tell her? I am panicking we will be dealing with obesity in about a year. She has a full breakfast at home / yet she goes to school and ask her teacher to get school breakfast. She is, for sure, not hungry. Can I ask her teacher to stop giving her school breakfast? [/quote]

Stop it now.

You are the problem

Learn how food is digested and turns to sugar. Fruit is not the answer you idiot.

Get parenting classes.

Take your kid for walks and active activities like bowling something to do with you.

You are heading them wrong they are hungry because you suck at feeding your children healthy meals. Find a good dietitian to help you and shit up around your child [/quote]

This is unbelievably rude[/quote]

And believably correct. Op is the problem. But also the "don't say foods make you fat or that you're kid is getting fat" is also a big problem. Those things should be said. Full stop. Too fat at 7 is very very sad..[/quote]
