Astrid, I cannot tell you how many times the school has called them to say they have taken her lunch from her as they send the 8 yr old to school with a can of softdrink & a fruit pop drink, 2 chocolate bars (full size) not a kids pkt of chips but you know those single bags you can get at the supermarkets (not the big ones but the single serve ones!) Plus a yogo! That's it...

At my place she constantly whinges that shes hungry & that can be after I have made a big bowl of fruit & yoghurt fopr Maddy & Her & her's is left untouched I just serve it up to her again & she says she's full, but then 10 mins later is hungry & wants a pkt of cheezels!

When she used to sleep over (I dont think she wants to anymore) I'd make a really big thing of veggies etc & she'd never eat any & actually tell me when she has friends over they usually get Take Away... I try but she wont eat anything healthy!!!

I do feel sorry for her coz next year in garde 3 & onwards is when kids will start to tease... Because she isnt shown better she will not be able to change & her sister is heading in exactly the same way...

The funniest thing is she will always say stuff to Maddy about being too small, skinny & POOR!??? Maddy doesnt get offended by anything like that & so she just ignores it..
