Description: Provides solutions and resources for parents and caregivers who are concerned about childhood obesity and overweight children, and for those parents who want to learn how to help children lead healthier, more active lives. This guide offers: nutritional information and guidelines; questionnaires to evaluate how food is used in families; and more.
Synopsis: Are you worried about your child's extra weight? If so, you're not alone. Childhood obesity has reached epidemic levels in the United States, affecting more than 9 million children and teens. Being overweight can limit your child's physical activity and contribute to low self-esteem, but what's even more disturbing are the serious medical conditions and diseases that can develop as a result of being too heavy--like cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. How do you as a parent take steps to help your child lose weight? Like it or not, childhood obesity is not a problem that can be solved overnight. Even so, the message of this book is simple--you and your child can succeed. A Parent's Guide to Childhood Obesity: A Road Map to Health offers long-term strategies and expert advice along with worksheets, questionnaires, and other interactive tools to help your child reach and maintain a healthy weight.This comprehensive guide offers: *Sensible, nutritional information and guidelines, emphasizing balanced and nourishing meals *Strategies for dealing effectively with a variety of parenting challenges *Approaches for encouraging increased physical activity *Questionnaires to evaluate how food is used in families *Guidance on how to partner with pediatricians, extended family members, schools, and child care providers to help ensure success
