[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This seems extreme to me. I would be worried about giving my kids a complex.[/quote] Oh goodness. I'd rather my children have a "complex" about healthy eating habits than be obese any day.[/quote] Most adults who are obese do so because, in part, they have an unhealthy relationship with food (aka a complex). Being hyper controlling of your kids’ food so they don’t end up obese is like sending them to play in traffic so they don’t get hit by cars.[/quote] 75% of adults are overweight. I’m pretty sure the majority of those people aren’t overweight because Mom and Dad fed them heathy home cooked meals as kids and limited their junk food. The truth is we live in a society where is is very hard for just about everyone to not overeat junk food. You have to be making conscious efforts to eat well and exercise. And that is what you need to teach your kids. But odds are they will grow up and eat too much junk anyway regardless [/quote]
