#2: PARENTING - Food Demonisation & How To Talk To Children About 'bad' Foods

<p>In this episode, I talk about the first time my 4 year old son came home from school and told me that chocolate was a 'bad food'. It really took me by surprise and I did my very best to guide the conversation positively. ⠀</p> <p>It was difficult with my 5 year old also chiming in to the discussion with her thoughts!
