[QUOTE="klmno, post: 379509, member: 3699"] I, too, can see how this would get to any person. Don't beat yourself for eating a little more than you want some days. We all give into our weaknesses sometimes- the main thing is not to let it get the better of you and just try again tomorrow, then forgive yourself for not being perfect. :) As far as these students, you know you can't take more on your plate so if you can point them or their parents (not knowing what would be appropriate in the specific situation) in a direction of someopne who can help, that's probably the best you can do. And sometimes that is worth a great deal, speaking from someone who has spent many hours on end sometimes just wondering where I can get help for something. Then, know you have done all you can- you can always let them know you care and pray (if you choose) for them and let your heart be at rest for simply not having it in your control to do more. I hope that didn't sound like a lecture- I just wanted to try to say something that helped you see that you have no reason to feel more weight on your shoulders over this and not to worry more or beat yourself up.
