Send your child right food messages
We hear it a lot. My child won’t eat or will only eat (insert the name of the food here). Raising children in today’s busy and harried world can be challenging. Raising healthy children with a robust sense of
adventure when it comes to food can seem even more challenging. What messages are you sending to the children in your life about food? Is food regulated? Is it available anytime anywhere? Are you a short-order cook for
each of the family meals? Do you make negative comments when faced with some foods? Do you avoid offering some foods because you just don’t like them? Do you tell a child “you won’t like that” before they have even tried it?
As author Dorothy Law Nolte once shared, “children learn what they live.” While she may not have been specifically talking about food, the thought fits. How adults approach food has a direct effect on the child’s perception of foods. As Ellen Satter researched and wrote in her books on feeding children,

h e a l t h y behavior. F o o d should not be used for punishm e n t s , rewards or Extension bribes. EspeNotes cially if the bribe is Diane something Mason like “you can’t have dessert unless you finish your peas.” Children may soon learn they can control the adult with their eating patterns. And, if the adult ultimately gives in to the child’s demands, there is a lifelong lesson being learned by the child. Food jags are common during childhood. Keep in mind that children will eat when they are hungry. They also will generally eat the amount of foods they need. It is the responsibility of the adult to ensure the foods presented will provide adequate nutrition for the growing child. Meals and snacks should include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and dairy products. Diane Mason is county extension agent for family and consumer sciences at the Boone County Cooperative Extension Service.
Grant to supply fans As the summer heat continues, the Duke Energy Foundation and United Way of Greater Cincinnati are partnering to bring welcome relief to those who need it most. Duke Energy Foundation is providing a $20,000 grant to buy fans and air conditioners for elderly, low-income and disabled residents of the region. United Way will administer the program, distributing funds to nonprofit agencies that serve the needs of those populations. The Cincinnati Enquirer reported recently that agencies could not meet the demand for cooling equipment in the face of the extreme temperatures the area has been experiencing. After learning of the need, Duke Energy reached out to help. “The high temperatures and high humidity can cause more than discomfort; they also can cause or aggravate health problems,” said Karen Monday, vice president of Foundation for Duke Energy. “We were
happy to work with our community partner, United Way, to help alleviate those problems.” Individuals that have a need can call United Way 211, United Way’s 24hours-a-day, 7-days-aweek health and social services information and referral helpline, by dialing 2-1-1 or contact their local United Way office directly for a list of agencies that will be distributing the fans and air conditioners. Funds will be available in Duke Energy’s service territory of Southwestern Ohio and Northern Kentucky. “We are grateful to Duke Energy for this generous contribution in response to a clear community need,” said Robert C. Reifsnyder, president, United Way of Greater Cincinnati. “The fans and air conditioners that can be purchased through this donation will help ease health and safety concerns for people who don’t now have access to equipment that can keep them cool in times of heat emergencies.”

there are food responsibilities that are divided between the adult and child. The adult is responsible for what, when, and where the child eats. This means healthy foods are offered in a positive atmosphere on a regular basis or schedule. The child is responsible for how much is eaten and whether or not they eat when food is presented. This means they may eat a lot at one meal and nothing at the next. However, they should learn to sit at the table and be a part of the family meal time whether or not they choose to eat. Fights about food occur when children feel pressured to eat. Control issues come into play when adults given into the children’s demands. Adults should not become short-order cooks and fix different foods for each member of the family (unless there are special dietary issues involved). Food should not be accessible all day, every day; there should be established meal and snack times. Additionally, there should be specific locations where foods may be consumed while seated, preferably not in front of a television or computer that is on. Mindless eating for children or adults is not a
