Being healthy starts as early as the womb – the mother must practice healthy eating habits in order to jump start her babies life in a healthy way. Once the baby is born, it will quickly adapt to the eating habits in the home in which they are raised. In the beginning of a child’s life their nutritional values are obviously dependent on their parents.
After the child grows into a ‘tween’ they are starting to take responsibility for their own food choices. This is when a young teen can start to gain weight or become underweight without the parents involvement. At this point, what the parent chooses to say is crucial.
