Well, I have entered the world of blogging. First it was launching a website, then a Blackberry, then Facebook and now blogging. Here I hope to share insights that will keep families on track with parenting their kids on a healthy road. As a pediatrician and a mom, I see the values we want to be able to share with our children – kindness, empathy, honesty, laughter, humility, respect, compassion, service and more. However, I see the dangers of busy lifestyles and not taking care of one’s health. Consider that taking care of how our children eat and exercise is like taking care of the temple that houses all these important values. That temple is so important as I have seen children’s and teenagers egos and self-esteem bruised and damaged by how parents feed their children, talk to their children about body image and how parents model taking care of their own health. Let’s learn to take care of that temple that holds all the hopes and dreams for our children.
