I want to put my nine year old child on a diet.
Will it help her to put your nine year old on a diet?
Her mother is fat and I don't want my daughter to turn out like her
You are being too critical of your young child. If you openly criticize her weight you could damage her for life. Weight is a very sensitive topic in a young girl.
I can't stop her from gaining weight and I want to protect her from making unhealthy decisions.
Teaching your kids about a good diet can help them stay healthy in to adulthood.
