Healthy Eating

I feel children is like monkey see, monkey do. When children see their parents choosing a more healthier approach in eating children will soon follow. When children start out at a very young age its easier in my opinion to get them to love and eat more veggies and fruits. I feel its time for the government to get involved with a healthier way of eating for the children. The first start needs to be at school, day cares etc since kids spend most their day there anyhow. For parents out there, I'm one of them and I would suggest buying healthier snacks from the store and also eating the healthy snacks along with kids. Kids want to do everything like their parents and what could be more than encouraging and promoting healthy eating.

Hello everyone,

My name is Monique, I’m 24 years old. I chose TWU because it was local and close to home. This is my second year at Texas Women’s University I changed majors so many times it’s hard to believe I‘m actually sticking with one and have been for a while now. My major is dental hygiene and I can’t wait to get into the field once graduated. My goals for the future is to become successful and to continue being a wonderful mom to my six month old daughter named Melody. Since becoming a new mom 6 short months ago I really don’t have time for anything else other than being a mom so I guess it’s safe to say my hobby is my daughter and I would not change that.

 Before becoming a mother I really enjoyed housework. I’m a very neat and tidy person who can’t stand clutter and mess everywhere. In doing so I would clean, wash clothes, house duties all while listening to the radio and to me that was my fun. I’m a very busy person seeing that I’m a full time employee, full time student, full time mother and full time wife. I feel I am faced with all the challenges because I know I can do it. Believe it or not with all that’s going on in my life I still have some time for me. My expectations for this course would be to understand how the natural systems work and as humans how are we or aren’t we affected by the natural systems.
