Cunha began by saying how children will only eat what their parents buy.
“Healthy children and adolescents, with no pathological condition that restrict eating, should not be responsible for choosing what they eat every day.”
The post went onto explain how children “aren’t mature enough” to decide what to eat each day. This is where parents come into play.
“The truth is simple:
the responsibility for the quality of children’s food is not theirs — it is ours, the parents.
Kids aren’t mature enough to make conscious food choices every day.
They need guidance, example and boundaries.
Creating a healthy eating environment at home is an act of care, education and responsibility.”
