[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here and I've had the reverse issue. I eat healthy (not over the top, but generally make intentionally good food choices) and my last family ate complete garbage. It was twin toddlers and all they ate were frozen breakfast sandwhiches, frozen chocolate chip pancakes, donuts, chicken nuggets, pizza bagels, hot dogs, and cake/cookies/cupcakes/ice cream. I was there for 4 years and around the start of year 2 I asked if I could have a grocery shopping allowance each week. I slowly changed their habits and the kids LOVED fruits and veggies, turkey meatballs, salmon, grilled chicken, etc. [/quote] This has happened with several of the families I’ve had. Parents applaud themselves because the kids don’t drink soda or eat hot dogs, but they have juice boxes that are at least half added sugar. Eating 6+ waffles or pancakes to feel full (elementary age kids), then needing a snack 30 minutes later is NOT healthy![/quote]
