For most people, it's a matter of healthy choices and plenty of exercise. Children will learn from there parents and other adults around them. My 10 month old sees me eating chocolate and wants to taste what mummy has and it can only get worse once she's able to say 'I want...' or go to the corner shop by herself. As parents we have a responsibility to teach our children good habits, not just eating, but playing and exercise too. It's not hard to stick on some music and dance around the lounge like an idiot - my wee one loves to be active and I hope that I shall be able to encourage this as she grows making activity a fun part of every day, and not just something you do in the gym when you've had too many carry-outs! Children will follow in their parents footsteps, and I want my kids to be happy and healthy and I believe it is up to me, not shops, advertisements or schools, to ensure that my children learn and enjoy eating good food, and being active every day.
It seems that an increasing number of people are keen to get a divorce these days after they experience a 'Hitch' in their marriage. Now obviously, the reasons for a person seeking a divorce will differ greatly from one person to the next, the enormity of a situation will influence how quickly someone wants to cut all ties with a spouse, but when I think of the number of people I know personally, friends, family and Co-workers who have decided to divorce without even trying, or seeming to, save the relationship I am quite surprised. I have noticed this happening in the last five years ro so. I am not married myself, but am in a long- term relationship. It seems that out of the people I know, those who are NOT married, try harder to sort things out before deciding to move on, if it has to come to that. I find this interesting. Have people here divorced after a short marriage or at the first sign of trouble? Did you find that you were more likely to have tried to talk things through and save the relationship 'before' you were married? Has anyone regretted having divorced so hastily, and wished they had worked on things? Thanks. :)
I heard on the news today that some schools are going to fine parents £50 a day for taking their children out of school for holidays. Some people cannot afford to go on holiday i suppose unless they go in low season.Some people are very limited as to when they can have holidays due to factory shut down periods etc. I assume that some people take their children out of school just because they can. What do you think about it? Is it wrong to take your child from school for maybe just one week a year.Should some leave be allowed or is fining the way to go??
dont think its about if its right or not children benefit from holidays with family however prices sore in school holidays so dont blame anybody who takes their child away in term time u gotta do it when u can afford it
