I have a 20 year old and a 18 year old. I may in a constant state of worry about heir health. They both are overweight, and I look at them and all I see is worry. I worry they have high blood pressure or diabetes. They have no symptoms, but I always worried. I can't even enjoy their beautiful peronalities, because I am so consumed. Any suggestions???

Being a parent can be so hard sometimes. How do you now worry for your kids!! I don't know that I have anything that can help, especially with mine being so much younger. I am trying to remember that they are their own people though. As much as I want to protect them and keep them safe, I have to let them be themselves and make their own mistakes. Have you expressed your concerns to them? I'm sorry I dont' have more for you, but I wish you the best of luck!!
