[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read the whole thread but it is pretty common for kids at home to snack and eat all day. My kids are skinny but there is a lot of bad eating going on. I pick my battles. Kids willl often not be hungry during lunch because they were snacking the entire morning while in school. I would not call this stealing. You should eliminate all junk food. We had an entire garage full of drinks and snacks from a cancelled birthday party. Then we had a ton of candy from Easter. My kids are junk all spring. I no longer buy sugary drinks and I buy the same boring snacks. They still snack but I offer them fruit and they like fruit. I prep lunch early before their lunch time so they have real food to eat when they get hungry. If I started lunch at 12, they may have found something to eat already. If I make lunch at 11, they may eat the lunch early and have a longer break for lunch to play.[/quote]
