[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I never said he would say that "you are fat" in response. I said he might say I am eating this way because it's healthy and I don't want to be fat. That's not a comment about anyone personally. I really don't understand some of these responses. They are so totally off point. I suppose it's probably a bunch of overweight people who are proving my point that you can't say boo about weight without being attacked. [/quote] If your 7 year old son immediately and spontaneously says "I'm eating carrots because I don't want to get FAT" then you are WAYYYYY overemphasizing the fear of getting fat. Just talk about how food is good for you and you enjoy the taste. Don't keep harping on how it bad food will make you FAT. You are really going to mess up your child and interfere with a healthy relationship with food.[/quote]
