Table vs. Television for Dinner

Posted: Updated:

Limiting the amount of time children spend watching Television can help bring more families back to the dinner table.

A new study in the journal Pediatrics looked at two groups of parents.

Those who were counseled about reducing television time ate fewer meals in front of the television.

Researchers said children who eat while watching television tend to eat larger portions and less healthy foods.
