all of you kids that are eight nine ten eleven and twelve years old shouldn't be worrying about diets... You have not compleately finished Growing yet and your body is still changing drastically. Dont diet at such young age... if you are still completely miserable at fifteen and 16 years old then make a LIFESTYLE CHANGE ( sorry for sounding like Dr. Phil) I know many younger people who have let dieting ruin their lives... please dont let it ruin yours...

i understand what you are trying to say. . . .but i mean some kids like me are overweight even if our bodies arent finished growing and stuff i really dont think that it matters because if you have a BIG stomach i think that you shouldnt exactly go on a diet but cut down on the high-fat foods and fast foods and just try and eat i dont kno start out at like 2 pieces of fruit a day or something before you know it you will be eating alot healthier!~!~!~!

hello!!! you don't know these kids if you think that a kid who is 200 pounds at the age of 12 shouldn't diet then you are being extremely ignorant I am just saying that you are ignoring the facts, and you shouldn't give such bad advice!

i think it is ok for 8,9,10,11, or 12 year olds to make a lifestyle change but not diet because dieting will cut out nutrients they need but if they make a lifestyle change they will loose weight and grow and be tall and slim and be happy so if they want to lifestyle change let them but i would reccommend not to diet till ur an adult of maybe 18 and if your a teen or preteen then you should lifestyle change and you wont need to diet when you are an adult

I hope I dont sound mean when i say this, but i just need to get it off my chest. MOST KIDZ DONT CARE IF THERE 8, 9, 10, 11, AND 12 YEARS OLD!!! WE 8, 9, 10, 11, AND 12 YEAR OLD HAVE A RIGHT TO DIET. IN LIFE YOU CAN CHOSE TO BE A FAT DOPE LIKE ME, OR DIET LIKE EVERYONE ELSE AND THIER UNCLE.
P.S. I may be fat and ugly but i CAN diet and its rude for you to stare!
P.S. Now you probably think I'm the meanest kid on Earth.
