The stress to be skinny is insane now..I think it's more a social problem than anything else. Both parents working and eating on the go, TV being a babysitter and video games non-stop. I have a rule in my house that if the sun is out and the weather is nice there is NO video games or TV until 7:30pm and they are done by 9pm. I also do not purchase any new video games between May 1st and Nov. 1. At first it was an issue, but now my kids love it. We go to the park, play basketball or kickball all the time. I have done away with all fast foods, except for Friday night (Pizza night)..They are not deprived of fast food, it is just something that is a special treat. It should in my opinion be something that is just done... Take a walk with your kids, cook them healthy meals, and get them involved in social activities. I do a lot of healthy choices without my kids even realizing it, for example pizza made out of wheat dough, fat free cheese and sauce that has mixed veggies mixed in and toppings such as peppers, onions, or mushrooms.. Although some of my "rules" may sound harsh, I found that I know my kids inside and out. It has brought my family closer and I know my kids are learning the tools for a healthy lifestyle without it being an issue of discussion. As for the schools teaching it, again they should not over emphasize on the subject and worry more about the amount of active time they can provide.

Have you considered looking them up in a dictionary? Then try a thesaurus. This is not difficult and you should be able to handle it yourself instead of asking us to help you cheat!
