Excellent Resource

Evelyne Gilles has written a great book and the narration by Sally Beth is excellent allowing us to take notes and add to our plan for our 3 boys.

Our 3 boys were the last 3 kids in their school to get a phone, they play sports and are outside all the time yet we still feel in that they are now bombarded. I love the connection made between the phone / computer use, food delivery apps and poor health. it is so true that we have gotten away from the feeding our kids the 5 food groups and keeping them healthy.

I recommend this book to anyone who has children.
