Teaching Your Kids Healthy Eating Habits

Parents who constantly feed their children potato chips, soda, candy and sugar-packed fruit drinks make me cringe. There are so many things wrong with this feeding method that lacks nutrition it’s hard to know where to begin my tyrant of complaints. For starters, it speaks leaps and bounds about their parents and their lack of discipline. Children will always want the sugary goodness of sweets and other junk food, but regulating their consumption is essential to a healthy diet. Caving into their demands only diminishes any authority you have over what they eat and sets them on an early obesity track.

Well-balanced meals are easy to whip up, so don’t fall victim to the excuse that junk food is more convenient. And although kids shouldn’t be snacking too much in between meals, healthy food snacks are easy to find. Pack a few granola bars, yogurt and trail mix into your jumbo purse and you’ll be ready to take on a healthy day with your kids. The most important thing to remember is that if you brag too much about how healthy these foods are for them, they’re likely to be less compliant.
