    A nurse is promoting a healthy relationship with food among school-aged children. Which of the following interventions is effective in promoting a healthy relationship?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Using dessert as a reward for eating vegetables can create a negative association with healthy foods, making them seem like a chore rather than a normal part of the diet. B. Labeling foods as "good" and "bad" can lead to guilt or shame around eating, which is counterproductive to fostering a healthy relationship with food. C. Encouraging children to eat all the food on their plate, regardless of hunger cues, can promote overeating and a disconnection from their body's signals. D. Offering a variety of foods and allowing children to choose from healthy options encourages autonomy, helps them explore new foods, and supports a positive relationship with food.
