One way to reduce the risk of childhood obesity is learning to recognize children's satiety signals and to cease feeding them at that point.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


True

Rationale: Children will indicate when they have had enough to eat (and it may be less than adults think they should be eating). It is important to acknowledge these behavioral signs and not to force a child to continue to eat. If these behaviors are ignored and children encouraged to keep eating they will gradually lose their ability to stop eating when they have had enough. This pattern can lead to obesity.
