Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the research is to learn whether written materials or handouts that are given to parents are helpful in changing knowledge or behavior.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Few written resources for families have been tested in the primary care setting. Kid STRIDE (STRiving to Improve Diet \& Exercise) is an educational booklet designed for parents of overweight children. We hypothesize that this booklet will benefit a small percentage of the overweight and obese population of children as a first-tiered approach to treatment of overweight and obese children.
