How To Beat Childhood Obesity

Mmmmm…stuff THAT down your kids throat.  For years doctors had been telling us about the evils of cigarette smoking.  There are direct links with smoking and cancer.  Parents are told not to smoke near their children, and pregnant women are advised not to smoke.  But many parents just don’t give a damn and they smoke anyways.  Sure, kill yourself and kill your kids… actually give them an increased risk of cancer.

Now we’re doing it with food.  Stuff your kids with crap from fast food places.  If you’re lucky they may choke on it…

People – FAT KILLS.  Your kids will be struck with disease upon disease.  They will get laughed at.  I was there, and will not let that happen to my son (who is 5 years old, and VERY active).  We let him have treats, but we ensure he is eating healthy.  He gets a double-dose of healthy foods.  He attends a montessori program and his teacher stresses healthy foods.  So he comes home routinely with comments like “you know, cookies are not very healthy; but my teacher says we can have it sometimes for a treat” or “today we had carrots at school; carrots are healthy and good for your eyes.  Can I have some carrots?  I won’t ask for a cookie today”.

So several years ago, 2004 to be exact I was an eager beaver and gonna make a zillion selling ebooks on health topics.  So I put together a 50 page guide for parents on childhood obesity.  I’m looking at it again, and thinking about giving it away.

What do you think?

Sell it?  Give it away?
