Eating only when
.
you're hungry is more
gm 14- elk lip+ ink in
Recently I read an amusing and amazing
article on grazing, the habit of eating what
you want, when you want it.
A revolution? Yes, but how did it happen
in such a short time? They say it began in
the 60s developed in the 70s, bloomed in the
80s and is still growing up - and out.
People used to sit down at regular hours to
meals, which entailed long range planning,
schedule juggling and arguments on the
kids' part, added pressure on father and
frustration for mother.
A ,research group_says it didn't evolve
from snacking - thatliccurs between meals -
grazing replaces meals.
It saves time. You can eat where you find
the food - the kids love it - they can play
without being scolded for missing dinner.
Healthwise it is better since you don't
overload at one sitting and less food,
oftener, .adds up to more in terms of well-
being. We are returning to the hunt -and-
. • gather existence of our species.
"You eat when you're hungry and drink
when you're dry" - can't recall the rest of
that song - but it seemsto fit. Somewhere,
they say six small meals a day are better
than one big sit down meal when you have
already had two fair sized meals earlier.
So, now they are changing our food habits
- but the kids are getting healthier and big-
ger and how about those seven foot ones!
The oldsters can decide on their own meals -
but do take your vitamins. They do help.
Kids have certainly taken over when it
comes to what they want. Even very young
children' put on big scenes in stores because
they know Mom won't correct them or
argue. This may interest many parents, to-
day, on "Children and Why Aren't They
Helping" around the house? .
Parents know they should share
household chores - and youngsters say they
will help = but does it happen? Bonnie Mc-
Cullough of the Herald Tribune of Sarasoto
says there are two reasons.
Children aren't motivated to work out of
guilt or commitment like adults often are,
and also they forget to use basic manage-
ment strategies at home. Kids don't see
things that need to be done - they must be
trained.
No matter what the reasons, there are
some basic strategies that will improve the
situation. Because they will pick up a few
things doesn't mean they will do it again on
command. A certain level of maturity and
adult guidance is required.
Cut down the quantity of - items to
something they can manage in their
bedrooms - according to their age. Rotate
- some of the toys and clothes, make the job
easy= then it isn't a job. Don't give one child
authority over the other , - result —
arguments and tears : they ,dont. knowhow
to handle it.
Help them to reach their work gdals as
well as school or homework goals. A little
•help and a lot of praise helps them . to
understand how to do things and how to
finish a job. A specified time and a written
list to be ticked off helps a lot.
Teach them how to do a job they won't•
learn by watching; they have other thoughts
running around in their heads. Be flexible
and understanding once you decide how
much they can do. They are not robots.
Remember how you hated to clean up your
home.
Good luck.
Love,
Martha.
