did it should be like that? as i work at the supermarket i use to see a lot of parents bring they children or kid together with them. i see they children pick anything foods they like, and i guess why they parents just don't control it. for me i think i never do that when i still a kid cause my father will get so angry when i take a lot of junk foods. it is not good for our healthy say my father. but know the thing has change and i don't know it a new trend or what..

Hie Mulau, it's not a trend, it's just that they pampered their children too much. When I was young, my mum was very strict about all this junk food too and it was easily available in our shop. I think the children when they are still young, they should be taught about healthy food, healthy living and not until they have some complications like diabetes, obesity later in life. And then the parents would start to have regrets or blame each other. There must be a balance for them, in the sense that as now they are easy to be trained. Eating in moderation amount and consideration is a good practice. Big servings of food should not be taken just to fulfill satiety and love for that particular food. As in any society ,any parents will give the very best and as much as they could to their children but now it has been proven, more harm is done than good. Yes, the children will be chubby and cute....so adorable now. My friend's daughter was three years old ( look like 6 years old )when I asked her what did she like to do, she told me - 'love to eat only and nothing else'. And true enough when I spent overnight that day , her hands were always holding some food. Children is innocent, it is the parents' responsibility to see to their owm children's health and not loving them too much until they are blinded of the dangers. And with the instability economy, it is wise to eat less, store less food in the house and save up more money. Cheers,

Kids are not supposed to eat all they want. Yes, you're right, some parents brought their kids on supermarket. And they do pick what ever they want. But sometimes in depends on how you will talked to the kids. Parents should let the kids understand even at a very young age the value of money. And of course to know a certain limitation. Eating junk food is not good specially if it is before meal. It just loosen your appettite. Kids should be inform that this is not good to thier health. I have nieces and nephews, We do allowed them to eat junk food provided that it will be after thier main meal. And they can only eat a portion. That is the discipline we taught to them
