Just ignore the idiots. Too many people use the word "normal" as an excuse for bad and unhealthy habits. Just because it's normal to raise kids on junk food doesn't make it right. Just because it's normal for kids to be far more obese than previous generations doesn't make it right. The diet of a child between 1-10 years old determine their likelihood of getting cancer as an adult. So no, we aren't weird for raising our kids healthy, because not only will they have a healthy childhood, but they are far more likely to have a healthy adulthood too, while all their peers suffer with a growing number of modern diseases and live on a diet of prescription pills.
