[quote=Anonymous]"I wonder if he's picking it up at school. My second grader came home and announced "I don't want to gain too much weight." WTF? Nutrition is a complicated science, virtually none of it settled. It kills me that teachers are required to be telling kids what to eat -- that is not their job, and they're not qualified to do it. " This is a good point. My daughter goes to a private school where the lunches we pack are closely monitered - nothing considered a 'snack' can be packed, including things like homemade granola bars or cracked wheat crackers (she had them taken away!). She had two lessons in the dangers of obesity before she was 7. We believe in good nutrition, but not at the cost of giving an 8 year old an eating disorder![/quote]
