As a parent experiencing \u201cFirst Day of School\u201d for the first time, it was both exciting and overwhelming. I spent the last few months eagerly shopping for all the essentials a toddler needs to thrive in pre-school. Yet this new journey was also an eye-opener to the unethical back-to-school marketing targeting kids. My public health brain couldn\u2019t help but notice how unhealthy, ultra-processed products are cleverly designed to attract children and how they\u2019re promoted as essential for your child\u2019s lunch kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like most parents, I believe it\u2019s important to ensure our children are nourished with healthy foods and snacks during school. The saying \u201chealthy body, healthy mind\u201d reminds us that nutrition supports physical health as the foundation for learning and well-being. That\u2019s why it\u2019s disheartening to see unhealthy foods normalized through pervasive advertising. Even more concerning, these unhealthy food companies and fast food restaurants continue to target children and youth to maximise their profits and flood our markets with their products while obesity, diabetes, and other preventable illnesses rise.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We need more voices speaking out and stronger advocacy to curb these unethical practices in the region. The Healthy Caribbean Coalition\u2019s campaign, Let\u2019s Do Better for the Children<\/em><\/strong><\/a> reinforced what we already know: we cannot allow unhealthy products to be marketed to children. As parents, we share a responsibility to advocate for healthier environments for them.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Undoubtedly, parents cannot do this alone. It requires a collective effort from the community to make meaningful change. As the saying goes, \u201cwhen you know better, you do better\u201d and we know these products are harmful, so we need to protect our children from them. We also know, if the burden of non-communicable diseases continues to rise, there are serious implications for our nation\u2019s productivity and our already resource-constrained health system. Therefore, our governments must ACT NOW to implement strong policies that ban marketing of unhealthy food products to our children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Let\u2019s Do Better for the Children<\/em><\/a> campaign is a stark reminder to all of us that we have a role to play in creating the future we want for our children. As parents we often speak to ourselves and discuss these challenges, but sometimes it never leaves the room. However, if we bring our voices together, we can push the needle on creating healthier environments for our children. Whether you are a parent, caregiver, teacher, friend or policymaker we should all want what\u2019s best for our nation\u2019s children. It\u2019s time to end the marketing of unhealthy food products to children. Our children deserve a strong healthy start to their lives and it is our responsibility to make that happen.<\/p>
