The Family Perspective “Being on the front lines” Lisa Hark, PhD, RD Director, Nutrition Education and Prevention Program University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

Objectives/Questions Why are more kids overweight now? What is the role of the family? What common themes did I encounter? What lessons did I learn? What are my hopes for the future?

Media Attention Let’s use it!

OK, SO THERE IS A PROBLEM! But why is this happening?

Factors Contributing To Weight Gain Unhealthy Lifestyle Calories TV, Video and Computer Game Time Sweetened Drinks/Snacks Portion Sizes Exercise, Gym, Recess Fruits and Vegetables Fast Food Snack Food Low-fat milk Source: Lisa Hark, PhD, RD

What is the role (and responsibility) of the family?

Front Line Themes Huge consumption of sweets, drinks, snacks. Kids eating what ever they wanted day and night. Many diets low in vitamins and minerals. Rotten teeth, poor sleep, lack of energy, HTN, pre-diabetes, excess weight, mood swings. Highly sedentary lifestyles  TV and video games in most bedrooms  Kids vegging out for hours and hours

TV Rules: Parent’s Role Percent of all 8-18 year-olds who say they have: TV rules that are enforced “most” of time 26% 53% 20% TV rules that are enforced some, a little or never some, a little or never No rules about TV Source: Kaiser Family Foundation, Generation M: Media in the Lives of 8-18 Year-Olds, March 2005: kff.org

Lessons Learned Under reporting of TV and videogame use Children are running the household Parents want to take control but can’t Healthy lifestyle is a low priority when busy

So what can we do?

Community Public Policy Organizations Family Individual Addressing the Problem

Creative packaging on healthy foods

Character licensing primarily on healthy foods

My Hope for the Future Parents prioritize & discipline better-starting early. Food industry creates more healthy foods for kids. Advertising unhealthy foods to kids is prohibited. Recess everyday and gym at least 1 x per week is mandated in ALL U.S. schools. TV shows increase coverage of healthy lifestyles.
