Quote From: fuzzytigerI am 23 years old and I struggle with my weight everyday. I have 2 younger brothers who are 13 and 10 and everytime i see them they tease and toment me. I am 5'4 and weight 221pounds. I also have had 4 children, with my oldest being 4. I can just imagine the hurt and pain that these younger children go through, if it hurts me this much as an adult.  
I would never talk down to my children. I am full of praise to them and never tell them that they are bad. I can't imagine how some parents can be crule to thier children. They didn't ask to be brought into this world.  
 
Mary,
Its a shame that your younger brothers torment you every time they see you- where is their mother/guardian, and why doesn't someone teach them manners?! Sometimes family can be even more cruel then strangers.
You've got your hands full with 4 children, it sounds like you never want them to suffer what you have and you are doing the right thing for them. The mothers on this show today are so self centered and totaly self absorbed. Its unbelievable. I'm so glad that Dr. Phil did a show on this topic because its more widespread then we know.
