- W606322011 abstract "There have been concerns expressed by health authorities, the media, parents andpoliticians that one in four Australian children are now overweight or obese and thiscould cause both short and long-term health problems. The causes of childhoodobesity have been identified as poor diet and insufficient exercise. Australia has anaffordable and healthy food supply and parents can readily access nutritionalinformation, so why do parents allow their children to eat a diet that is unhealthy?Food, eating and family relationships are complex areas encompassing many socialand cultural issues. This thesis looks at feeding young children from the parents'perspective and examines why contemporary parents face dilemmas about feedingtheir children. It uses data from nine focus groups in a variety of rural and urbanlocations in Tasmania.This study shows that parents find feeding young children confusing, frustratingand challenging. They cannot trust experts who provide impractical, oftenconflicting advice, but also they cannot rely on tradition, as so much has changed.Children are targeted as consumers which creates demands for junk foods butparents are responsible for their children's health and need to feed them the rightfoods while respecting their choices. Because parents have limited time, they needto use convenience foods but they have concerns about their nutritional value.There are complex processes of negotiation, compromise and coercion exerted on adaily basis by both parents and young children to ensure incorporation of their foodpreferences in the family's diet. These parental dilemmas about feeding young children are socially constructed andas such, will not be resolved simply by providing more expert knowledge thatparents find confusing and impractical. Trying to understand the considerablesocietal pressures and conflicting discourses that parents are subjected to aroundfeeding young children, not only has the potential to influence the way that healthprofessionals and policy makers deal with families but also provides insights intohow everyday activities are affected by social forces." @default.
