I agree with the healthier eating aim versus childhood obesity. Plus, I think it is also important to educate the parents/guardians. They are the ones grocery shopping, making meals, etc. So a child can come home and say, "hey mom, can we have some steamed broccoli with dinner?" And mom replies, "I don't have time, we're ordering pizza tonight." I'm just sayin'...

Every situation is different, every situation is unique, but in almost every situation, education is the key. However, it needs to be well rounded and not kid specific. If it takes a village to raise a kid, then it also takes a village to eat healthy.
