Parents are giving their toddlers too large portions of food, according to a survey by the Infant and Toddler Forum.

Of the 1000 parents who used their website, the forum found that 80% of them were giving their toddlers portions of food that were too large, and in doing so, were putting them at risk of obesity.

Gill Harris, a child and clinical psychologist at the University of Birmingham, was behind the research and she discussed with presenter Sarah Montague the problem of judging the correct amount of food to give a child.
