I think it is their caregiver's fault. What are they feeding these kids? Must be junk and soda. [ Reply | More

My DD is huge--26 lbs at 12 mo--she EBFed until 6 mo. Has never had "junk" or soda. Some kids are bigger than others. [ Reply | More

Go and reread her post "Must be junk and soda." My point is that no, that's not always the case. [ Reply | More

OP here. I'm talking about the fat toddlers and pre-schoolers I see, not your fat 12 mo. [ Reply | More

I'm talking about the op - I don't think she (or anyone) is referring to ebf 12 mo babies. I think the post and the or are referring to "kids" that have the ability to eat junk food and soda. I think you are overly sensitive because you have a 26 lb baby. [ Reply | More

Could be. My dd gains weight so easily. She takes after my side of the family - it's not always just bad habits - it's simply harder for some. Sigh [ Reply | More

some people have the "thrift" gene. The trick is to not let kids get to the point where they will constantly be in the state of needing to shed a few. I have a friend whose daughter seems to be like that at she's only 5. [ Reply | More

...and lots of parents absolutely clueless about how much sugar their kids are eating - they think yogurt is healthy (not if it has a bunch of sugar in it and the kid eats 10 per day) [ Reply | More

ugh - so true. So many fat parents feed their kids fast food all day long - chocolate milk, dessert after every meal - and a vegetable is considered a french fry. So sad. [ Reply | More

Yes! My sis and I were discussing the fact that most of us adults can name the fat girl from high school - I bet if you asked a highschooler to name the fat girl today, they'd have about 100 to choose from. [ Reply | More
