The pressures of living and working in today?s economy can take their toll on all of us. Vacations, as you point out, are vital for recharging the batteries under any circumstance. They are, perhaps, even more important now. Companies might want to heed the advice of this article (http://www.upyourservice.com/learning-library/customer-service-mindset/serving-others-serve-yourself) to get an idea of how important a little time off can be to success.

Take Those Vacation Days and Return Happier, Healthier, and More Productive
I totally agree wiht what you said, start them young and as you said when your child knew how to chew.
It sure does pay to be good role models to our child or children.
As for the toys packaged attractively with something full of fat or sweets will be a problem for health conscious parents.
Then there is also the advertisement of these things during times when kids are still up.
Mass media and psychological marketing has probably taken over the kids and some adults.
Weight problem is becoming a social oproblem not only in the US but also in some other countries.
I wonder what each and every country's leader would do about the ballooning citizens.
