1) Parents should take responsibility in making sure that their kids are getting healthy snacks and enough exercise.
2) The government needs to take action in providing healthy and quality meals for children. The government also needs to provide more money for school systems to improve the school lunches and have appropriate physical education programs!
3) The media needs to take on a positive outlook to healthier foods! By influencing kids to think good about healthier foods, they may be more willing to try new foods and live a healthier lifestyle!
