What do other blogs have to say??
Hello all! Recently I was browsing some other childhood obesity blogs and came across one titled "Childhood Obesity News." The title seemed interesting enough to me so I thought I'd check it out! The blog has a wide array of topics that all relate back to childhood obesity in some shape or fashion. While on the site, a post that caught my eye was one asking if "thin" was a four letter word. The post basically talked about how parents, family, doctors, etc. are too worried about hurting the child's feelings rather than worrying about how the overweight child is hurting their body and future. The post also described how parents and doctors should use the word fat and take away the negative connotation from it that way kids will become more open about any weight issues they have and will want to discuss them. I liked the post so much, I commented on it! Click on the link below to view my comment and leave one yourself!
