Brothers getting seriously out of control....

[Transamws6]

Are you speaking from experience here??




Where do your parents stand on this issue?

If your talking to me, they agree and try to portion his food down to a mininum but it doesn't work. He'll sneak in some more food if he's still hungry. Or if they lock up the pantry he'll go to his other fatass buddys house and stuff his face there and play PS3 at his house it's a vicous cycle he has set for himself.

What are you rents like? Looking for ideas.

Tie a stick to his back and have food hanging from it in front of him. He'll be running all day just like in a cartoon

[EnjoiJoe]

I hate fat kids

[wheeliE-maxx]

I have a *really* fat friend and I rip on him sooo hard. He's okay with it though and has been gi-normous since he moved here in 5th grade. I'm 16, bro just turned 13. By this time next year he may be giant like your bro. He's getting bigger all the time. Football starting seems to have helped a little

[gjb]

He's gotta wanna do it. Just be a cool bro and support him, don't be negative.

I agree that when he gets a girl, it'll be important to him and he'll do it on his own.

That's the wrong but easy thing for your parents to do...but then again if they instilled good eating habits your bro wouldn't have a problem. It's a lot easier for them to limit his portions (not working) than it is having only healthy food in the house. Portion size is less of the problem as what he is eating....junk food and all that nasty shit. Him eating crap all day is starving him of nutrients so he's always hungry...even after just eating.

[Rhinohuey]

you'll have to start supplying him with cocaine.....that will take care of the eating problem

[allbaugh_04]

Ok. This is hard, yet easy.

1. GET RID OF THE PS3. He will still probably play at friends house though. Don't give him rides anywhere. Make him walk where ever he goes. This will help out way more than you think. Make him walk to school etc.

2. If you really want to help. Talk to your parents about the types of food you eat. Make sacrifices for yourselves and buy nothing but fruit and veggies. Now you can still eat this shit, over eat and still get fat. But believe me, it's way harder to be fat eating healthy foods like that.

Good luck. Better act now or he'll have diabetes very quickly. If it's not too late already.

Get him involved in sports if possible.

Start dating a supermodel and have her over all the time, if he's lucky he'll catch anorexia from her.

Steven, after reading this I am thinking that just maybe, your brother is not motivated by the same tactics as you were. In fact, if your Dad is a huge ball buster, it may be having the exact opposite affect on your brother. And, also not judging here, but your Dad may be unintentionally contributing to the problem???

Umm Dena sweety, my Dad has long since passed on. I was just talking about what motivated me. My old man was a ball buster for sure. But I used to ball bust him back all the time. Just how it was around our house growing up with my Dad. Women lol (girls) were a great motivater too lol

Sorry to hear that. I just mentioned it because my dad was the same way. My little brother didn't let it roll off his back as well as I did. So, it made think about that.

Heh... in my house, there was no ball busting back to Dad. Nope, that would have gotten ya smacked upside the head
