Guest guest Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 it is very hard to see a overweight child. i was a skinny one, but as adult i ballooned up. my family members are overweight. most by like 60 lbs. my sister has 2 kids. how she deals with it, her son has a belly, but loses it in sports in school.. her daughter 6 is of course thin, but growing up this may change. she makes her kids do healthy choices. yea they get fast foods n stuff,, but the girl when she goes she gets the ornges in her happy meal, not fries, n she ask for them. if her kids eat some sort of sweets after dinner n want a snack,, she gives them fruits. teaching them healthy choices. my older niece 16 is getting heavy. n her self esteem is not to good. she tries to be confident in herself but points out she s ugly,, n is not.. i would love to talk to her about it n say to her she needs to try something,, but how do i ??? it s hard.. but waiting till its out of control like mine got to be is not good at all.. no omne ever talked to me about it n now i wish they would of.. getting kids away from tv n outside playing is good. any ways i want to talk to my niece but dont know how.. thxs donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
