If you have ever had a loved one go through Alcohol Rehab or Drug Rehab then you know the ups and downs that go along with the recovery. It takes a very strong support network, and personal attention to help them recover.

My three kids eat and run almost everday, and we hardly have a chance to sit down at the dinner table to have a decent conversation. In order to assure they are getting the proper nutrition, we don’t allow them any snacks, if they don’t eat at least  a portion of their meal. So if they are in a hurry to eat and get out to play with their friends, and skimp on the meal, they realize this when they are hungry and come in for a snack. I have noticed a big difference in their eating habits, and now get a chance to see how their day has gone.Â
