[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see kids walking from the low income housing near me, and it never fails to amaze me to see how many will stop at the convenience store on the way and buy candy and junk food before school, and then go on, no doubt to their free FARMS breakfast. Not enough money to put a bowl of cheerios in front of the kid in the morning, but enough for junk food? Or is it just no will to put some food into the kid for breakfast?[/quote] I did the same as a kid and we had an abundace of food in the house. You know why? Candy and junk food tastes better to most kids than eggs, fruit, and toast. Plus, it felt good to go to the store and pay for things with my allowance. Stop assuming that kids go hungry. It's not a low income thing, its a kid thing. [/quote]
