A few days ago, my 9-year-old commented on how her brand new jeans were feeling kind of tight. When I told her that she was probably going through yet another growth spurt, she got quiet. After a long pause, she told me that her papa had suggested that perhaps she shouldn’t eat so much. I know for a fact that what he really told her was that she shouldn’t eat so much candy and that it was her teeth he was concerned about, not her weight. But as I told him later that evening, it doesn’t really matter what he said, it’s what she heard that counts. And she heard that she eats too much.
