Those of you who eat unhealthy food or struggle with your diet, should modify your behaviour. What you do will have an impact on your children.

They grow in a person slowly, over time, Mothers are becoming increasingly aware that even very young children can grasp moral values. When a young mother asked Aristotle as to when she should start training her one-year-old child, Aristotle said, "Hurry back home, you are already five years later."
