*****************************************************************************************************************8
There are times when it is necessary to take over the role of the parent when the parent refuses to accept the role.

I am going to be slammed by some of you on this but here goes...

When 67% of the ADULT population in United States are either overweight or obese -- it tells us that MOST parents are incapable of taking care of themselves.

And wouldn't you guess -- they pass their bad eating and exercise habits over to the kids.

Today's kids are getting fatter and fatter...

My god... for those of you who want everyone to ignore or keep silent on this dangerous subject... it is like ignoring a bull in the china shop.

And that is right... the main purpose of the school's BMI grade is to embarrass the adults to accept some responsibility for themselves and everyone else in the household

So don't get pissed off at me or the school -- YOU got yourself fat.

And usually the ONLY way to make changes in an unhealthy environment is to get angry.

Take charge here -- you're the adult. Insist on healthy foods at home. Throw out the junk food and sodas. Take daily family walks around the park.

Just do something...
