Well, we all know DCUM is in full support of the weird (mostly) Gen Y/Z obsession with their kids needing to cram something in their mouths every 60-90 minutes between meals, lest they wither and die on the vine.  :roll: [/quote]
Their kids probably weigh 200 lb from all the sandwiches and muffins these women shove in them every two hours.[/quote]

As a new parent the emphasis on snacks for everything shocked me. When my kids started soccer at age 3 I could not understand why we had to provide juice and snacks after matches - not practice, but matches which seemed to be shorter. It was such an important thing to parents, they would get pissed if the snacks weren't "good" enough. The fields were filled with trash from the kids snacks. If you walk around the fields at any public school you'll see it. The whole match start to finish was less than 2 hours. No kid was dying or so depleted to need this. It is insane.

I felt the same about gd goody bags filled with plastic crap for every event in school. Why do parents not question this idiocy and refuse?[/quote]

You don't think kids (who are calorie furnaces by virtue of growing in the first place) would benefit from a snack after 2 hours of physical activity?  wtf?[/quote]
