I want tell all moms or dads that there is a legit way to make money from home without selling anything or cold call anyone! I am now working from home for 2 years now and I love it. I just set up wholesale shopping accounts via internet and phone and I get paid well for it. I dontt sell anything or touch any inventory, ever! Go to www.athome4kids.awugreen.com. You won't spend a lot to do this either
1/18/2012 09:21:14 AM Report AbuseI agree we need to just eat natural healthy foods. NO GMO's, organic or garden grown foods. Not processed, modified or altered. My four kids are considered "thin" but hey are normal sized kids that eat a healthy natral diet and exercise (play) like all coulds should. This low fat, low sugar or sugar substitutes and GMO's are a huge contributor to long term health issues and over 80% of the foods on the shelves have Genetically Modified Organisms. SAD

Do not drink cows milk (and we raise beef cattle on our farm)! They drink Silk ! None of my children are over weight and hardly ever get sick ! I don't so much think that the weight problem has to do with milk as much as the lack of exercise children get now a days ! Take your kids outside to play and don't feed them processed food ! They will be healthy !

We've seen a dramatic increase in developmental delays in children. A recent study OSU show that autistic kids that were given cholesterol showed a dramatic decrease in symptoms. Most kids are not getting the essential good fats that they need. Let's quit messing with nature.
