How does eating while watching TV make my child overweight?

After a long, hard day, it's tempting just to gather around the tube with your plates to watch the evening -- reality show. But it's not a good idea. Kids (and adults, too) eat much more on average in front of the TV than when they're sitting at the table.

Why? They lose awareness of the sacredness of food, and the act becomes mindless -- a sure recipe for overeating. When you concentrate on eating, you can pay better attention to your body's signals that you're full.

Not only that, but kids take about 150 fewer steps for every hour of TV they watch, so it's a double whammy: Eat more and burn less!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
