On a daily basis I have kids bringing for snack (not dessert):

Packaged muffins, cookies, brownies, Doritos, cheetos. And the quantities they are bringing are astounding too.

This is terrible brain food. It makes them sleepy, unfocused and it’s terrible for their health too![/quote]

I am shocked at what parents are packing for their kids for lunch.  But, I have also seen that most parents are also pretty ignorant about what constitutes healthy food.   The horrible diet impacts their classroom behaviour and their focus in academics.

I used to care about it.  But, now, I think it is going to be the survival of the fittest in the future, and if these kids have bad health and bad outcomes in academics, I am no longer sweating it.

They have to live in this country with broken down healthcare.  Good luck to them.  Let them eat Doritos and Marshmallows.  Their bleak future is on their parents and no one else.

- a parent who agrees with you.
