Usual care Depending on the age of the child, the topics of the tailored health education program will differ. Parents of babies (n = 240) will receive health information on safety behaviors. Parents of toddlers (n = 240) will receive health information on overweight related health behaviors: physical activity and nutrition. Parents in the intervention group will access the computer-tailored health education program at their homes through the internet. After completion of the assessment questions, the program compiles a tailored health information handout. During the next well-child visit the well-child care provider will discuss this tailored health information with the parent. |
