Don’t Put YOUR Child at Risk - Get the Answers You Need – TODAY!

Does this sound familiar?

You’re pulling into the school parking lot just as the bell is ringing. It just so happens that this is the day you are taking your daughter to the pediatrician for her annual checkup.

Normally, she rides the bus to the sitter but today you’ve taken the time off from a hectic work schedule to take her to the appointment.

As your eyes scan the crowd looking for your daughter, you overlook a small group of kids who seem to be surrounding one child. Suddenly, you jerk back and realize the child being teased is your daughter.

For a moment you are frozen in place as you watch her burst into tears and try to get away. But the group of bullies is intent on pursuing their line of torment. Finally, you jump to action releasing your seatbelt while swinging open the door of your car.

As you run toward the group you hear the taunting, “fatty, fatty. . .” omigod. . .suddenly you are eight years old again and you’re plunged into your own nightmare. But that’s a different story for another time.

One of the bullies sees you coming and alerts the others. Just as you arrive they are suddenly gone leaving your daughter sobbing. You wrap your arms around her and do your best to console.

It isn’t until you are back in the car, your daughter safely strapped in the back seat that you begin to berate yourself. “Why didn’t I see it coming?” There were signs: too much fast food, pizza is such a simple meal on a busy weeknight.

What’s a parent to do?

The first thing to do is to stop beating yourself up. The past is gone and all you can do is plan for the future.

As unfortunate as it sounds, we are raising a second and third generation of overweight children. It’s only recently that some school districts are recognizing the problem and adjusting their school lunch programs accordingly.

But is that enough? No, not by half! Part of the problem is that we have placed our children on the same stressed out schedule that we are on. They eat constantly from morning until bedtime. That might not be all bad but they are eating the wrong foods!
