Download or read book Raising Healthy Eaters written by Henry Legere and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2009-04-20 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important steps that parents can take to prevent childhood obesity or simply to get their children to a healthier weight is to teach them good eating habits. Establishing such habits at an early age will contribute to lifelong health. Indeed, when kids learn that a snack should be an apple or carrots instead of chips or a candy bar-a deceptively difficult lesson to teach-they are better equipped to resist the temptation of junk food on a regular basic. In Raising Healthy Eaters, Dr. Legere offers 100 easy-to-follow and easy-to-implement tips for parents of children of all ages and eating preferences. He includes healthy, quick recipes that kids will actually like, as well as specific suggestions for parents who want to serve only organic foods or whose children have allergies or aversions. Raising Healthy Eaters is the essential resource for parents working to raise healthy kids in a fast-food world.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers project one-half of the world's population will suffer from myopia (nearsightedness) by the year 2050. That's around 5 billion people! What's happening to our children and their eyesight? The answer to this question and what you can do to help your children is explored in this book, A Parent's Guide to Raising Children with Healthy Vision. Over 30 years Dr. Despotidis has spoken to thousands of parents who share one common goal - to raise healthy children in every sense of the word... physically, emotionally, and socially. This book is written to educate parents on the science behind myopia development and the serious consequences technology has on our children's social development. To provide a balanced perspective, Dr. D has enlisted the help of his younger colleague, Dr. Noah Tannen, and Kimberly Lee, a teacher with a Master in Education. Each brings a different viewpoint to raising children with healthy vision. Together they share their wisdom and insight into this global epidemic of childhood vision deterioration. Life is not black and white. There is no one formula for raising healthy, happy children. Every child is unique. That's the power of this book. It's filled with facts, insights, and recommendations, but ultimately it's a tool to enable parents to make the best decisions for their own children when it comes to vision. The authors' hopes are for parents to see the world through their eyes; as eye doctors, parents, and advocates who challenge the status quo and do what's best for their children.

This book was released on 2013-02-05 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned and respected family psychologist John Rosemond blames child-centered parenting books from recent decades for creating a generation of dependent, often defiant children. He sets the record straight in The New Six-Point Plan for Raising Happy, Healthy Children, an updated version of his highly successful book published more than fifteen years ago. Booms in technology and mass media have created significant changes in society in the last two decades. The text in this revised book has been thoroughly updated to reflect today's society, yet the foundation of Rosemond's timeless and effective approach remains constant. He encourages families to return to tried-and-true, fundamental parenting truths that people did naturally before the "new science of parenting": * Parents aren't their children's friends; they are their leaders. * Parents are at the center of a family-not kids. * Your marriage must come before your children. Each chapter includes easy-to-relate-to questions from parents, which Rosemond answers with both common sense and a sense of humor. For families feeling overwhelmed by competing advice about parenting, this book will ground them with logical, proven approaches to the most significant challenges parents face today. From issues such as self-esteem and discipline to television and chores, this straightforward guidance will facilitate a return to parent-centered families where children are raised into responsible adults.
