"Given that almost two-thirds of American adults are overweight or obsese, we should be concerned about what we feed our children."
I think the last part of the above sentence has to be changed into either of the fowllowing two sentences because the verb, "feed" doesn't have two objects. What's your opinion?
about what we feed our children on.
about what we feed to our children. |

Sentence 1 is okay.
Sentence 2 is wrong (you never use feed with on in that context).
Sentence 3 is the most proper.
Most people would say sentence 1.
