[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL at no-nothing parents accusing parents who actually understand nutrition as "entitled."  It's not like informed parents are telling anyone what to do on their private time -- feel free to eat all the sugary snacks you want (and pay the consequences).  But when it comes to a government-run school, educated parents have every right, if not a social obligation, to set the school straight.  Especially when the school isn't even following its own rules when it comes to health.

The finger-pointing by no-nothing EOTP parents looks very similar to non-studying kids making fun of smart kids for being smart.  Maybe the non-studying kids also view the smart kids as being "entitled," when in reality what the the smart kids are doing is being successful.[/quote]

On behalf of gentrifier parents who let their kids eat icecream and watch tv from time to time: please stop. Devote your concern to figuring out what the teachers lack and need. If you really believe the administrators are such idiots then you should probably not be in that school at all.[/quote]

One of the most important things a parent can do for a child is NOT send the child to a defective school, you're right about that!  But if the school is acceptable and you send your kid there, and the school should be doing more to serve healthy food, then it is ALSO your obligation as a parent to make the school do better.  It's not just good for your kid, but everyone's kid, whether every singe parent realizes it or not.

And, again, no one is saying you can't spoil your kid while in the comfort of your own home.  No one is saying you can't.  The main point is to make sure that government services are provided properly.[/quote]

You are so entitled that you can't even understand the point: most of us (rich or poor) DO NOT CARE if our kids get sweetened yogurt every so often. You are not magically right just because you believe you are.[/quote]

Not the poison yogurt lady but if you don't care if there are yogurts with less vs. more sugars, or yogurts with artificial food dye vs. ones that don't have it, then what are you pushing back against exactly?  If there's a healthier option and you supposedly don't care then why are you freaking out over this?  Are you just mad that someone else is looking out for kids when you, as you just said "DO NOT CARE" about kids nutrition?[/quote]

If you google the info for the Yoplait Trix yoghurt, it might help you understand the crazy in the room.  [/quote]
