Too many snacks.

(1/5) > >>

Yoshi:
just found this on bbc news site and its seriously bad, a kid got taken out the lunch hall because he had one more snack in his lunchbox than the school allowed.  Who the hell gave the school the right to tell parents how to feed their children when the parents pay for it??

strapping young lad:
yes but on the other hand when you are given instructions on what the child is supposed to have as snacks, the school is trying after all to keep kids healthy not shove crud down their throats and encourage snacking.

what makes me more angry was seeing parents buying their kids maccy d's and pushing them trhough school fences cos they didnt want their kids eating healthily

flipping dumb folk  :evil:

Yoshi:
SYL not quite true, its not wanting them to not eat healthy, its giving them the freedom of choice.  The school has no right to tell parents what to give their kids to eat.

missroadrage:
I can understand both sides of this being a mum but it is proven that a high percentage of kids are obese - so are too many adults - would you want to encourage your kids to be overweight & unhealthy or struggle with their weight all there lives.

It is a fact that obesity or even just being overweight leads to higher risk of heart problems
