I have been irresponsible.

I am a youth leader at a new church. So far we have had a few events, and I have revolved them around food. Junk food to be exact. We had a make your own pizza night, and a movie night where we made cookies and had popcorn. The pizza night included soda, and candy. The movie night had kool aid. It has occured to me that I have sent the wrong message, and I need to correct it. I need to show them how to have healthy snacks, and that we can have great food that isn't total junk. I think as a role model for these kids it is my job to model good food behaviors. Of course, cookies are fine as a treat, but I feel a big problem is everything revolving around food. Now, any youth leader will tell you, that you have to be prepared to feed them. That is fine, I just need to find a healthy way to do that. One thing is I am swiching to sugar free drinks. We shall see how that goes.
