It's tough as SAD is pervasive and has become an accepted way of life in most developed countries. That means processed convenience foods are now the "go tos" in the mainstream, and it means children have unhealthy foods served to them and available at every corner. Pizza, ice cream, sweet yogurt, and soda are now normal and frequently consumed during the course of a typical week for children and adults. Parents must become aware, knowledgeable, and authoritatively assume the unenviable position to be food police for their children, as the abundance of unhealthy food choices is so pervasive, unusual controls must be taken. When the children become teenagers, good luck! They make their own choices based on what they've learned and how they've consumed to that point. The new normal.
