In this modern age, taking fried chicken is a way of life for majority of the world population. This is the impact of fast food culture spreading every corner of the world.
When my daughter was young, the grandparents bought her drum stick chicken. After she attended nursery and primary school, taking fried chicken became an eating habit for her from time to time. Simply, all her classmates were eating fried chicken. She did not want to be the exception.
We reached an accord. I brought her to the fast food store once every three months to enjoy the fried chicken. That last until she was 10 years old.
When she was 10 and at standard 3, we visited a chicken farm in the village while going back for Chinese New Year. She saw the bottle containing antibiotics and growth hormones. I took the chance to explain the process of chicken farming and the sufferings chickens going through. She was told how the use of growth hormone and antibiotics affects our health.
Since the visit, she decided to give up the habit of eating chicken.
Children learn fast and can make wise decision if proper information is given at appropriate time and place.
My daughter’s wise decision has brought positive impacts. She is in good health condition and has not visited the clinic since 2004.
If you or your family is not in good health and obese, reduce consumption of fried chicken. This may just open a new window of health in life.
