A Book That Provides Truly Helpful Insight and Advice,
By A Customer
This review is from: Overweight Teenagers (Hardcover)
As parents of an overweight teenager, we were unsure how to help her without hurting her. After reading this book, we felt better informed about what to say and do, in practical terms. We also came to the realization that this issue is not our problem to solve. Our daughter "found" this book lying around. She read it herself and brought us discussion about her plans. We knew to "just listen" and let her own her own efforts. A teenager, unlike a young child, has to be in full control of their own body. We as parents have to provide the context for fitness and good health but the actual responsibilty lies with the teenager herself. Being a supporter without interfering can be like walking a tightrope. We used insight gained from reading this book to help keep us from falling off the tightrope. As a family, we have all made more of an effort to be healthier and more fit; and we are experiencing some positive changes in our household.
