Quote by Marilyn Rodwell, The Wedding Drums

“She had burdened the boy with worries and chores before sending him away. He never complained, but she worried it would weaken him and cause illness. She longed to see him and check his face, the lines around his mouth, the dimple on his chin, and the look in his eyes. It would tell her all she needed to know.”

“Talking to a child about future health issues is also not the correct course. First of all, it can scare the child and make her have excessive worry about herself. Unfortunately, we hear parents tell their children that they will get diabetes or have heart problems if they don’t lose weight. Secondly, the concept of future heart problems is too abstract, even for an adult, let alone a child. Worry about future health issues does not have the power to motivate behavior change. Feeling physically better in the moment has far more impact.”
