Questions: A friend gives her 2 year older daughter something to eat whenever she's the lowest bit grumpy or fussy. She says she does this to soothe her. I devise it'll end up tutoring her to turn to food for comfort instead of dealing with her state of mind. Any opinions?

I agree with you 100%. i enjoy a close friend whos Mother always used food for comfort for her. She very soon weighs over 300 pounds and have for most of her adult energy. She has a outline of eating when shes lonely, upset, like a cat on a hot tin roof, ad or in good spirits...this pattern be set for her by her mother and now as a result she is obese.

I agree. I have a friend who did this next to her two youngest children and they are both very obese immature adults now. Sometimes children do become cross or grumpy because they are hungry, but if she is doing this everytime the child is dejected she is teaching her "passionate eating". Not a good item.

You're exactly right. Your friend is creating a fat child and pushing her towards juvenile diabetes.

I agree next to your assessment 100%. I think it also shows that the possibility exists that mom also have some issues dealing with her inner health. Why not use motherly comforting to soothe rather than food (or surrounded by many cases gifts)? IMHO the best providers of comfort are friends and own flesh and blood.

I craving that worked on mine.

Personally I think that anything resembling that is probably a doomed to failure idea. I hold an acquaintance who's constantly putting her kid down for nap and complains that he can't go to sleep. (Well possibly if you waited until he be tired he would!)

What is she feeding her child? The single way that would work on mine is if I be constantly giving him sweets. That's a very desperate idea. If she's feed him carrots or apples and it works, okay, I wouldn't worry.

Personally, I try everything, however, we're currently competent to ask "what" and can reasonably expect that he'll show us what he requirements.

Your right.

i think you are rite, kinda srry for the kid if the parent keep doing that

i suggest you are totally right.
