Here is a sample of the type of acclaim The Parents' Survival Guide: Childhood Obesity has been receiving around its content. "The Parents' Survival Guide on Childhood Obesity is an incredible resource for parents, grandparents and all of us who care for children in our lives. The documentary explains how obesity has become so prevalent in our society. But more than simply depicting the problem, Louise's work provides us with clear and tangible steps to fight this epidemic, one meal and one child at a time. I highly recommend the documentary to anyone who is interested in becoming part of the solution to childhood obesity." (Liz Kniss, County of Santa Clara Supervisor).
