Beat the "health experts" -- not the kids.


that real bad... but that looks like its from the u.s ?

Parents are just as bad as the children, I've noticed that most parents understand nothing about nutrition and what to feed to their kids. Most don't understand how bad these foods are for their kids, or they just don't care, aslong as the child is happy. If the UK or US or any other country with this problem is going to face up to it and deal with it. It has to start within the home and education to children from a very young age. My sister for example, shes normal weight but right now she is pregnant and how many vegetables does she eat a day? 0! she still lives on ready meals when I've told her so many times what could happen if she don't get proper nutrition.

Ask any child or adult how many fruits and vegetables do they get a day? A large majority will all say none or a number under 3. Even when I tell my parents or family they should eat some vegetables, they don't listen at all. Because in the short term it doesn't kill them so they think they can get away with it.
