I work for a national daytime talk show and we are working with overweight teens. I would appreciate an opportunity to speak with any parents or teens who are willing to share their story, in hopes of spreading education and awareness, and well as obtaining support and advice for their own children or selves. I can be reached by phone at 212-506-4335.
Sincerely,
Stacy
