Grow Up Well Nourished -- Model Healthy Behavior
Your kids are always watching you.
And they learn as much from your actions as they do from your lectures. That means your actions need to mirror what you say; otherwise, they'll be confused about what you really mean.
Research shows that kids tend to imitate their parents' behavior and continue to do so throughout adulthood. If your child sees you eating well, staying physically active, and leading an overall healthy lifestyle, she's likely to follow your positive example.
But if she observes you modeling unhealthy behaviors, such as avoiding exercise, skipping breakfast, or abusing alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, she is more likely to adopt these same bad habits.
