What Parents Need to Know
About Honey We're Killing the Kids
Parents need to know that this show makes a connection between media overconsumption and bad health. It also uses extreme computer-generated images of what children might look like as adults if they continue their unhealthy habits. These images may be frightening to kids who don't understand that the pictures are exaggerated for dramatic effect. The series talks frankly about diseases like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease and how these could be in children's future -- also a potentially scary idea for younger children.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about their own diet, exercise, and lifestyle habits and think about ways to improve them. How can kids (and parents) add more fruit and vegetables to their diets -- and less sugar and bad fats? Can kids think of ways to be more active and have fun at the same time? Why is it so important to limit time spent watching TV and playing video games? A possible activity: Think of everyday items that will help keep portion size in check -- like a deck of cards for a 3-ounce serving of meat, or a light bulb for a 1/2-cup serving of vegetables.

Pretty good show
I like to see what the kids look like 40 years from now before and after the diet and exercise. Good reality show.

I am not a fan of "reality" shows but this show has an important message that needs to be seen and heard.
