[quote=Anonymous]My son ate a lot from infancy. He just had a huge appetite. He is now a grown man, six feet tall and built large. Probably about 220 but he lost a bunch of weight recently. He struggles with a compulsive appetite. Thankfully that has not translated to addiction to anything more harmful. He drinks almost not at all and has never used drugs. I wish, when he was a boy, I had taken this issue more seriously than I did. I wish I could have helped him learn to control this problem so he would not have struggled so much with his weight. When he was a teenager he played sports and that kept him somewhat leaner. But once he stopped daily workouts that came with sports like football he got bigger. He has taken up running and that helps. I think when they are children there is a fine line between helping them with rules and guidance about food and focusing too much on eating. Good luck![/quote]
