That makes a change then lol.
The fact it is true makes it even worse a child making a statement basically saying chocolate is what she lives for suggests that she doesn't have anything "fun" to look forward to. The parent needs to make some fun things happen and not all fun things cost money if that is maybe another problem. In the article it says she wants kids, and wants to loose weight to go to some theme park which are positives in the childs mind but the parent/family need to make her realise that won't happen unless she cuts down on unhealthy foods.

Also if the parent has a takeaway on her/his lap while watching tv then of course the child will pick up on that and want that also. Meals should be together and at the table...the child can help set the table/clean up etc and be involved rather than on their pc or watching tv.

I was wondering the exact same thing..both of these parents lock doors and the child finds the key...that excuse is pathetic! They should lock the key within another lock...or carry oy around with them.
