Thanks Jen for the feedback...yep, that's what I thought about kids too. They would need different calorie ranges and fitness goals.

Rory,

Our calorie and nutrient recommendations are for adults, not kids b/c they have different nutritional needs. So we would need a different version of our program.

Seems like this could be accomplished just by setting up a "KIDS ONLY" Forum. :)

Hi Joan!

That's not something in our immediate plans since we're putting all of our resources towards this site right now, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't do it down the road.

Great idea!

Hello SP Experts!

With the continual rise in childhood obesity, will SP be launching a website similar to this one specifically designed for children? I was shocked to read the number of children that are considered obese. As successful as this website is, I bet one for children would be successful too.

Just wondering...
Joan
