Who's In Charge

Went to the supermarket the other day. Saw a father and daughter shopping. She was a cute kid (4-6 years old) with big, piercing eyes and a dominant personality. She picked up a BIG box of chips, about 24 small bags in the container and brought it over to the cart. She looked at her father, with those big eyes, basically saying "I want this and you will say yes". He smirked and in went the container.

Couple of things caught my attention - 1. the diet of kids are so unhealthy and making them sick and 2. the father was afraid to say no to his daughter. p.s. She later saw something else that she wanted , he "tried" to grab it from her, she held her stand and in it went into the cart.

Parents, stop feeding your children garbage and take healthy control of your homes.

This may help: I'm teaching an online class on "Weight Management" in April, check the events link for more details.
