[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: Consider having your daughter apply for an amount of life insurance that requires a physical. Once she is denied/rejected for coverage or only offered coverage at an extremely premium (rating), she may understand the need to seek medical help. OP: You are 100% right to be concerned. This is both a mental health issue and an issue of physical health. Having a heart attack at a young age is unnecessary & preventable.[/quote] This 100%! Op, I’m with you. I’d be worried, too. Obesity is the cause of so many childhood and adult diseases. We have to get it under control. No amount of “body positive” framing will change the cold hard facts of diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, increased cancer risk, mental illness, infertility, etc that comes with obesity Have her doctor talk to her about healthy eating and exercise. It won’t help coming from you. Best of luck![/quote]
