[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not try to micromanage your pre-teen's food choices. Ice cream is not poison and it's just fine as a daily snack. Heaven knows, that kid probably gets limited food choices at home if the parent is having conniptions over ice cream. Did you think your child would stay the size and weight of a 10-year-old? Kids this age grow, gain weight, and change shape. Girls this age are already having body image issues. You should ensure you are not subconsciously reinforcing disordered eating habits.[/quote] Agree. I suggested my DD purchase it once per week when she asked me at beginning of year. Sometimes she buys it twice a week, or none. Has a small dessert w dinner like a cookie or piece of candy a few times a week but I don’t police what or when. Seems like a bad idea and not realistic to restrict a 6th grader like that, it may backfire.[/quote]
