With certainty, fattening kids up by making them overweight/obese is child abuse.
Nutritional child abuse is the most common form of child abuse of which we are aware. About one-third of all kids are overweight or obese. April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month in the USA. To help these children, who are arguably the most abused on earth, Fitness Watch will offer 30 tips and facts – one for each day in April – directed at saving the children. Even if you are not from the USA, these facts and tips can help you and your children, too.
Today’s Tip – Do not force your kid to eat.
Even if you sweated over a hot stove all day to make whatever you made, do not force it down your child’s throat.
Taking it personally will not help.
Fact is, better the food is left on the plate than worn around the belly.
As long as cravings and overeating do not result, there is no good reason to make an issue of the matter.
