>In light of our discussion on scheduled feeds, I wonder how many of us on Lactnet (a) have issues with food -- either we eat too much, or eat too little, or are consistently concerned about weight. And (b) how many of us that have issues with food a la (a) above, were fed on a schedule, and had food used as either reward or punishment...."If you are good, I'll get you an ice cream cone." OR, "You've been bad. You'll go to bed without any supper."
I bet there are a lot of us that fall into either or both categories --
particularly those of us that were born in the 40's & 50's. And I would
hypothesize that those of us that fit into either A or B have issues w/
weight.
Jan, these was the reasons I decided not to make food an issue when I started having children. I deliberately did the opposite of just about everything my parents did when it came to parenting: the food issues were the tip of the iceberg, one of the symptoms, not the cause. I would like to think that my parents thought they were doing the best for their children, but.....<shrug>....who knows?
