If you want healthy children, make sure they eat what you eat...
A recent study found that parents who serve kid-friendly food are doing them a disservice. The nutritional researchers determined that children who ate adult meals were significantly healthier. They say that dumbing down the meal for kids with selections like chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese or pizza is robbing them of a balanced diet and of developing healthy habits.
It wasn’t just the food that factored into the study. How and where the kids ate made a difference too. They should be required to sit at the table with the grownups and not be allowed to eat or snack in front of the TV or in the back seat of the car.
