Résumé : |
Given the fact that parents structure children’s food environment, the “when”, “what”
and “how much” of food provided, they are considered a key influence in children’s
dietary behaviours and nutritional status. In the light of an increasing prevalence of
obesity among children, this study aims at examining how parents can change
children’s food choices and eating behaviour in order to be healthier.
A convenience sample of twelve mothers of children between the age of seven and
eleven participated in the study. The qualitative data collection technique used was indepth
interviews. The results suggest that children may be more likely to adopt
healthier eating habits when growing up under a healthy parental food umbrella. Food
parenting practices which may be beneficial in stimulating healthy intake among
children are identified. Food variety and positive role modelling fall under this
category. Seemingly less effective food parenting practices are pressuring children to
eat and using food as a reward for desired behaviours. The results show promise for
intervening in the overnutrition of children by controlling household dietary patterns. |
