#2 PARENTING: Food Demonisation & How To Talk To Children About 'bad' Foods

Mon, 30 Nov 2020 19:00:22 GMT

In this episode, I talk about the first time my 4 year old son came home from school and told me that chocolate was a 'bad food'. It really took me by surprise and I did my very best to guide the conversation positively. It was difficult with my 5 year old also chiming in to the discussion with her thoughts! I hope through hearing me discuss this topic, you can be better prepared than I was.TOPICS⠀0:00 – What led me to recording this episode⠀07:04 – Food demonisation and how it can create shame and guilt around foods⠀09:48 – How I talk to my children about food & letting lifestyle dictate how a child eats⠀12:25 - Setting up a good food environment for children⠀13:47 – Why moderation is a stupid word when used with nutrition ⠀15:47 – Being considered in your thoughts and words when talking to children about food⠀18:24 – Parenting guilt and how you can persuade children to eat foods they don’t like⠀20:36 – Wrap up
