Children of any age do not support themselves; they do not go to the supermarket to buy food. They won't decide on the weekly menu. They don't buy soda or artificial snacks; they eat what you give them as a parent. We all know that the school has a lot of dietary nutrients and high levels of oils and carbohydrates. As parents, we also know that many times, buying a fast food on the way home after a tough day is easier than eating something nutritious and healthy. We are responsible for the happiness of our children; this is our hand to prevent our children from becoming diabetics from an early age.

You can do something before it's too late, now it's time to do it. You can't do anything about the school menu, but you can talk to the person in charge of the cafeteria and keep your child away from mashed potatoes and fried foods. Ask this person to help you, give your child a salad, fruit and food that has almost no fat or carbohydrates. If this doesn't work, give him a lunch to go to school. Your little sacrifice will be of great help to your child's health.

Plan your dinner menu in advance. Keep carbohydrates down, add more fresh products like salads, and eat less pasta and fatty foods. After a long day of work, we know that you are tired, so plan to do a week of cooking on Saturday or Sunday, put it in the refrigerator, so all you have to do is warm up and serve. This will save you preparation time and make your tired feet and brain easier. Avoid giving your child a second meal and bring their dinner to their room. Dinner on the table allows family time and allows you to control your food intake.

If your child doesn't like sports, that's fine too. Take them for a walk in the park or cruise with them for half an hour to an hour. Believe it or not, walking is a good sport and calorie burner. Keep tight control over games, computers and televisions, distribute your children's shores in the garden, and pay them something after they finish. Exercise, sunshine, work and payment will also create miracles for their spirit and body. You have to be creative and let them move on, hibernate or wander on a mat or bed. Plan to go to a local museum or amusement park or community pool; let them walk and let them move around, exercise is the key to health.

Candy, junk food and soda are your biggest enemy. Don't leave them at home, it doesn't mean you'll never eat or drink them; make sure you can, but do it occasionally, not routinely. Children don't need dessert every night, especially for special occasions. They don't need soda, soda can't even quench their thirst, help them get used to drinking water, and drink a lot of water every day. The same is true for junk food; leave your time, go out, at the mall, or the movie anywhere in your home. Teach your children to eat well and they will live well.

Work harder today and your child will get used to food and drinks. When they exercise and spend outside, they become stronger and feel better. They will learn to better manage their time and become better students, and when they lose their horrible addiction to video games and TV, they will better communicate with you and them. Limiting their game and TV viewing time will help them learn the communication and interaction skills they don't need now because they communicate with machines rather than people.

This is not easy, we know that the younger generation is caught in a fatal trap. They lost the ability to express their feelings and exchange ideas. If this situation persists for too long, they may stop talking or thinking. They will become machines themselves. Some of the terrible events we saw in the news today began with a lonely child who was locked in himself and his mind; a child who hated himself because he was obese or different from his peers. This is the era of communication, this is the truth, but we should communicate between us, not communicate with the machine. We should use all of these devices to improve human communication rather than loneliness.
