Many children, and adults too, just can’t keep control of their eating habits, body weight and shape. Part of that is caused by the fact that they are rarely empowered with the skills of self-discipline that help them do what they should be doing. They don’t know enough about how the body works and how food works in the body. They trust others to tell them what to do and when to do it – the “puppet syndrome”. Let’s empower them!
