Answers:
I think that is fine because your son has not gown through puberty yet . He will have a growth spurt and become taller. As he does he will naturally loose weight and thin out as he becomes taller. I think you should keep him activity at a normal rate with nothing over the top and with time his body will level out.

hope this helps
good luck

i would suggest a sport. it'll be a great way to improve his social life, confidence, and it's a great way to lose weight. if you have the money to spare i would suggest martial arts. taekwondo is what i was in when i was his age, and i was larger than him. maybe the martial arts is a littl biased, because since then i've devoted my life to mixed martial arts cage fighing, but i think it's a great way to improve a young person all around.Health Question & Answer

He is going through a growth spurt. All kids around his age get belly fat which will go away as soon as he grows into his body. He is too young to be worried about losing weight although keeping active is not going to hurt.Health Question & Answer
