[quote=Anonymous]I believe in "everything in moderation," and while at home we have healthy and well balanced meals and snacks, I also do not fully deprive my kids of treats at special times. However, my main problem (my kids are tweens now) is that the special times happen all-the-time in today's society. Between birthday parties, social get togethers at the pool (not to mention the snack bar at the pool which only sells junk), times at friends' houses with pantries stocked with oreos and chips, snacks after soccer games, team get togethers, so on and on. I feel like I never get a chance to give my kids a treat of my own because they are offered junk multiple times a week in various settings. So while a "day on a boat" is a special outing, it likely is not the only day that week that op's kids were given junk food (I don't have an issue with goldfish or carbs by the way, although I would also want my kids to have fruit or veggie and a protein).[/quote]
