Setting the proper Example

Ellen says: God's Word tells us that our children are gifts from Him-our inheritance from the Lord. Our most important jobe is to bring them ti know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Next, we need to safeguard their health and well-being by providing the love and nourishment they need to grow and mature properly.

I have noticed that when parents become health conscious, they begin to feed their children right. You can help your child learn to make good choices by setting the proper example. Our children do what we exactly do. If we eat junk food, they will eat junk food; if we smoke, we are teaching them to smoke. On the other hand, if they see us eating healthy foods, they are more likely to follow our example. If we exercise regularly, they will want to join in, or they will find their own ways of staying physically active.
