My golden nugget of parenting advice would be to really encourage parents to lead by example. That is one of the things I've always tried to do myself with my kids. I don't tell them what to do. I demonstrate what to do.
If you want your kids to eat healthier, eat healthier. If you want your kids to be more active, be active with them. I see so many parents who like to send their kids to classes. There's nothing kids would love better than to participate in all of those activities - dance, swimming, sports - with their family. And they'll do it gladly.
So lead by example because your kids will do what you do. They're not going to do what we say. They do what we do. So the best advice is just to model what you want your kids to learn, and they will learn it.
