Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Children are an important influence on food habits in some households. Researchers studied newly immigrated Latinos in the San Francisco area and found that the importance of the family unit can be used to motivate changes in food habits. Adults unwilling to make changes that would benefit their own health may make those same changes to improve the well-being of their children.
