Still struggle though - I wouldn't put crap fuel in my car so why put crap fuel in my children? At the same time I do see the autonomy issues. It's a tricky one I feel.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16712579445183785360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037191148781832448.post-33675691595524491162009-02-25T20:21:00.000+00:002009-02-25T20:21:00.000+00:00It is really difficult with food, especially nowad...It is really difficult with food, especially nowadays with the "5 fruit and veg a day" thing and the government "change 4 life" campaigns and everything. You can't go into a supermarket without being bombarded with "health" messages on all the packaging. My nephew's school doesn't allow children to take crisps or chocolate to school in their lunchboxes - taking not only the children's but the parent's choice away. <BR/><BR/>I read a Paul McKenna book once ("I can make you thin" I think) where he says you should eat whatever you want and not worry about it - and studies have shown that people who are allowed (or allow themselves) to eat anything at all, with no banned foods etc, do end up over time eating a good balance diet.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, sorry, I'm waffling! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037191148781832448.post-12869296359388916122009-02-25T19:09:00.000+00:002009-02-25T19:09:00.000+00:00I think the food choice thing is a difficult one. ...I think the food choice thing is a difficult one. I know of people whose children are confined to only 'healthy' foods at home and when they come to our house they start begging for breakfast cereal, biscuits and cakes and anything else they can get their hands on(!) so total restriction isn't always the best solution. As I've been hooked on cola for the past 10 or more years, (it became my equivalent of tea or coffee) and I know it makes me bad tempered and gives me headaches, it's the one thing I don't let my kids have. For me, it's a bit like smoking, some things are better not started!Big mamma froghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03006397435397636499noreply@blogger.com
