Summary

This study tests a 12-week program that teaches parents how to use positive, supportive feeding practices to help their children eat better and grow healthily. It includes 36 parents and their children aged 5-11 who are at risk for obesity. The program focuses on giving parents tools to encourage healthy eating without pressure, and researchers will measure changes in diet quality and weight.
