Main Points From Today\u2019s Episode

1. Don\u2019t do things for your kids that they can do themselves. Katie believes her job is not to raise kids, it\u2019s to raise adults.
2. One way to eat healthy while on a budget is to incorporate seasonal foods into your menu. Katie has rotating seasonal meal plans and lists the ingredients she needs per person so she can easily increase the portions.
3. Parents are responsible for providing healthy food for their children, but they\u2019re not responsible for forcing them to eat it. Modeling healthy choices for your kids and allowing them the ability to make decisions can a long way toward creating positive lifelong habits.
