From Tessa, child's age 0

I was reading some of the comments posted here and i was a little dissapointed. For those who are reading this i do not mean to offend anyone, but some of you are only concerned with the weight factor of your childs health. I know I am only 15 and have not had a child of my own, but a lot of what i am reading is "I love my children but they're so heavy." and it's right for you to be concerned with your childs weight but not be criticizing them in the process of helping them. I am not going to name names but one woman stated that her daughter's stomach was quote "big, fat, and flabby." would you want your parents to talk about your body in this manner? No one wants to be told that it's just mean. My point is you should tell your kids the positive things about their body and not the negetive and that will most likly build self esteem. One of the most important keys to weight loss is self esteem and believing in your self. Thank you for taking time to read my comment (and to some rambling) - Contessa
