50 POINTS + BRAINLIEST Paraphrase the claim Michelle Obama is making in these remarks from the PHA Building a Healthier Future Summit:
"But we also know that at the end of the day, when it comes to the health of our kids, no one has a greater impact than each of us do as parents. We know that families play a uniquely important role in the
work that we're all doing. And that's one of the things I want to focus on today-what all of us can do to better empower families who want to make healthy choices for their kids.
Now, on one level, this seems pretty obvious. I mean, after all, our kids aren't the ones going to the supermarket or waking up early to make breakfast--at least not in my household. (Laughter.) And they
certainly don't sign themselves up for ballet and basketball clinics at the Y. That's our job. More than anyone else, we as parents decide what our kids eat, and how active they are every single day."
