The food that is available should be healthier alternatives like veggies, fruit, oatmeal, grains, lean meats, and other foods that aren't highly processed. No soda, candy, or questionable snack foods. What kinds of foods are usually at your parents' home? Do they buy cookies, crackers, sugary cereals, etc?
What if it potentially leads them to steal?

look at it this way:
theres the "if you don't like what you see on tv change the channel person"
and
theres the "we need tv ratings to protect the children person"
if shes the first personality then she'll be fine.

Also it seems like whenever I go home they are ordering carryout dinner all the freaking time, as if nobody feels like cooking any more. I know when I was around they used to cook a lot more meals. Maybe my mom just got sick of it.

My 12 year old bro is 5'1 and 150, my parents took him to a nutritionist, and he said that "the boy has absolutely nothing wrong with him, and as long as he excersies, he will have no trouble at all".
So who knows. I guess though, being a guy, and him not liking girls yet, its easier for him. Only 1 kid called him fat, and got his ass kicked for it.
