Question:
Is 4 pounds a lot for an 82lb 8-year old to gain in one week with his grandparents?
Answers:
It sounds like a lot but it could also be a growing issue such as he is about to have a growth spurt and therefore is packing on the pounds to support the growth. If something like this has never happened before and there is no growth spurt in the future I would not let my child spend the entire week with the grandparents unless some clear rules are in place. Everyone knows it is so easy to put on the weight and so hard to get it off.
Good Luck
