Clare Collins , a senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle , believes such programs will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of whole families . “If we can’t get parents to take action against their own weight problems , then we can’t expecl to influence their kids ,” she said .
However , Professor Louise Baur from the Children’s Hospital at Westmead , doubts whether adult education programs offer any solution to weight problems . “Many parents know they need to lose weight and they know it influences there kids , but they lack the willpower to do anything about it .”

“We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe , so we make law against it,” he said , “Obesity is a major public health concern , so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads ?”
