[quote=Anonymous]At our elementary school, there are a good number of kids from food insecure families. The school has a table where extra cafeteria food, chocolate milk, yogurts, etc. are placed and kids can take from it if they want. The elementary school also serves free breakfast to all. So, my son eats breakfast at home but is also offered breakfast at before care, breakfast in the classroom, and then extra food at lunch... not to mention snacks in after care. It feels like the only meal we can really control is dinner. We could probably ask before care and aftercare to more closely monitor his intake, but I think too many food restrictions sets up even more unhealthy eating habits down the road. [/quote]
