1) http://www.bbc.co.uk/mundo/ciencia_tecnologia/2009/09/090929_hijos_sanos_men.shtml
2) The article inquires about the case of children whose mothers work. It's scientifically proved that these children tend to be sedentary and eat less healthy food.
3) The research, published in "The Journal of Epidemiology and Child Health", analized the lifestyle of 12,500 children. It resulted that the children of working mothers were less active and that they ate unhealthy food. These children also had less tendency to eat fruit and were more inclined to consume sugared drinks. Futhermore, it was discovered that these children spent more hours in front of the computer or tv compared to those children, whose mothers stayed at home. The research experts are not against working mothers but want to manifest the need for programs to help working parents. More studies are needed to understand how the fact that the mother works influences health behavior.
4) I didn't know four words.
NIVELAR = to level; to balance
SIN EMBARGO = however
DESAFIOS = challenges
LOGRAR = to obtain; to achieve
