Dear FDA Chief Counsel Troy:

Please help me to keep my daughter healthy.  As parents, we currently 
battle an endless stream of advertising unhealthy foods.  It is incredibly 
difficult to persuade a young child of the importance of fruits in 
vegetables in the face of ads for colorful condiments, sugary cereals, and 
fast food.  Despite being very active, my daughter is overweight and it 
has become particularly challenging to ensure her overall health and self 
esteem under such circumstances.  I understand the need for free speech, 
but I would hope that we could, at the very least, restrict advertising 
for unhealthy food items until after 6pm.  Please do the right thing for 
this generation of children.



Sincerely,


Rich Kelley
