is it ok for kids or little kids to eat junk food every other day?

Question

is it ok for little kids to eat junk food every other day or every day????

Answer 1

America's the fattest country in the world because parents don't watch what their kids eat.

I'm not saying reward your kid with broccolli, just to be sensible about it.

Instead of buying 4 chocolate bars for 4 kids, buy 2 twix and split it up. Or buy a super sized mars bar and give them half each. Junk food is not okay for ANYONE to eat every day (unless you're a rigourous work-outer.)

Answer 2

No I dont think so, Ihave three kids, and the doctor tells me all the time how is very important, to maintain a healthy balance diet for the kids they are growing up and we dont need them to be diabetics, or other health problems so young because we give them junk food every other day, is like letting them eat candy every other day.

Answer 3

No, childhood obesity is becoming a crisis and fat kids end up having more health problems as teens and adults. Junk food is okay to eat once in a while, but should be avoided. Kids are learning eating habits and bad eating habits will carry over into adulthood. Teach kids to eat healthy.

Answer 4

You can tell her all you want, about sugar and vitamins, etc. How vitamins make her grow tall, her hair grow, her nails, etc. and that only vitamins are in good foods, not Mcdonals. However, most adults, let alone a CHILD would have a hard time controlling themselves and eating veggies when there are cookies in chiips right next to it. We all know its bad to have cookies, but hey it's self discipline, which again you can't expect from a child. To solve this problem, you need to talk to your parents about buying healthy foods. Doesn't seem like they're doing a good job parenting and providing the proper nutrition.

Answer 5

Little kids may run around like little animals and burn off a lot of energy but feeding them fast food everyday or so could lead to eating disorders,obesity,or other major health risk later in their preteen years.It' better to substitue junk food with fruits and vegetables.they may not like it but once they try it they usually like it.

Answer 6

no.

it would be better as a parent if you did not feed your kids any junk food.

for me as kid, mcdonalds was a 1 -2 X every two weeks.

Milk with meals.

chips a little bit.

candy - never.

Answer 7

Yes. Yes it is. We need american children to eat as much fatty food as possible if we are going to stay ahead of china in total weight. They have over a billion people, but they all weigh less than 1/4th of us!

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10
