150pound 6 Year Old? Please Help!?
I live with my boyfriends family{Mom Dad Sister & Him}
His little sister is about 150lbs and about 4'8". She will be 7 surrounded by about 2 months. For comparison Im 125lbs and 5'5" and 19.
I know she is on a very fast track to crucial health problems. And even very early demise.
Her parents know about the fact she needs to loose substance and what not but they don't seem to be trying to get her moving and loosing weight. Or even human being slightly healthier.
Yesterday I made her a sandwitch that was healthy but apposite, She wanted everything that was on it on it. She had I don`t know 4 bites said she was full then 10 minutes later asked if she could hold ice cream. I told her no because she did not eat her food. She threw a huge fit and ran to her dad and asked him obviously he said ya and gave her a huge bowl of ice cream.
How do I help her out instinctively?
And most of all how do i approch her parents about this?
How do I get them to see they are butchery there youngest slowly?
I don't wanna be the bad guy and seem similar to a * but I don't want this little girl to suffer now and later on from being so over substance.
HELP PLEASE!!
Could be a thyroid issue. Her parents take her to a pediatrician, I'm sure you're not telling them anything they haven't hear before. It's not your kid and it's painful to not be able to do anything, but techinically, your a guest surrounded by their house, if you don't like what they do, they will gladly show you the door, just know when you should put your foot out and when to close the door behind you. Good luck
Let her go to the park with you, play Frisbee with her, tennis, basketball, or soccer. You can walk on a little jog with her, convey her that healthy food is good. Tell her and her parents the dangers and condition risks of being overweight at such a young age, and that eating in good health will benefit all of them.
take her for walk, to the park, play with her, take her jogging, or running, catch her doing hop-scotch, if you cant help what she eats, then at most minuscule help her burn some of it off by getting out
Show her parents some youtube videos of fat kids getting made fun of, narrate them horror stories of girls killing, yes KILLING themselves because they get made fun of. If they don't want to help her for her own strength, maybe they'll help her for her self esteem.
YIKES! That kid weighs more than I do and Ive get 40 years of stuffing ahead of her.
That is pretty sad but I dont mull over theres much you can do.
Why worry about it so much?
Answers: Honestly, there's nothing you can do, since it's really not your place. And I know that's an incredibly hard thing to hear, but it's true. I would try individual active with her when you get the providence, that's something her parents (hopefully) can't/won't interfere with.
It's sad that they don't understand that ruin being done enough to want to make a translate, but there may also be underlying problems that you're not aware of/considering. (Is eating a coping mechanism for her? If so, have she recently gone through any hard times she may've gotten through by eating?) If such is the baggage, weaning her from her food cravings is going to be harder than 1, 2, 3.
Doctors have made your parents aware of their daughter's situation, if you want to express to them that it's effecting you, it may motivate them to do more to help your sister, I would approach it in conversation alone near them, on the phone or in person, when both are in a flawless mood. Mention it, don't push it, like I said, doctors have assessed your sister's situation, as her sister, it's not polite for you to push the issue.
I'm very sorry to hear of your situation, I hope it improve.
My cousin is 8 and 200lbs and we have the same problem. The problem for you is that if the parents don't want to change this next they wont and you butting in will make a strain on your relationship with the ancestral.
Just know that any doctor that see's the girl will let the family know what serious problems they are causing for her.
You can lend a hand by doing things with her that are secretly helpful. Things resembling taking her out to do dance with you, doing yoga, and swimming with her will back her get some exercise that she needs.
My boyfriend does the same things next to my cousin, and he has lost 30 lbs since we moved in.
Sometimes it's better to secretly facilitate than to try to change the whole family.
