My kids actually eat quite well. We are in a slightly different situation...both of my boys (6 and almost 8) are exceptionally skinny and we are trying to put weight on them. We've suplemented their diet with Carnation Instant Breakfast in their milk at breakfast and snack time. Aggrevating the weight issue is the fact that my 8 year old is now a year round swimmer and he'll swim almost 2 miles at practice so he needs the callories to sustain his current weight. (by the way...the 6 year old is a pretty good swimmer too, as is my daughter, but we aren't supplementing her diet).
