[quote=Anonymous]I see a family that eats/makes available/buys McDonald's food for dinner practically every day.  They have at least two kids (boys, aged 3ish and about 7 or so).  While I'm waiting for my son to finish an afterschool program, I wait in the McDonald's parking lot for him.  EVERY week day, either the mom or dad of the family brings the boys to the McDonald's and when they come out they have some variation of the same things...Happy Meal boxes, sometimes ice cream too or smoothies.

I am honestly not judging, though it's not a choice I make for my family, and realize that there could be any number of reasons why they do it.  I'm not in their shoes...I believe that most people do the best they can with the information that they have at hand.

So, anyway, I have been pondering the whole situation in my head for a few weeks now and have an honest question:

What, if any, kind of long term impact this will have on the kids involved (two boys, aged 3ish and 7) if they eat McDonald's every week day (at least) for an entire school year or longer, but then stop and start eating it on a more occasional basis?
