[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, if you are looking at it from a “big brother” or a “parental control” perspective, you may have already missed the point. It does not bother me at all….simply because I asked the principal “why?” The answer that I got made sense to me. The healthy eating portion was a factor. But the primary answer was that some parents were packing high sodium and high sugar lunches and the kids were hyper for a while and then crashing about an hour after lunch. They figured out that most of the discipline and behavioral problems occurred within that period. My kids eat pretty healthy because we had to change our household diet (because of DH’s heart attack), but it was not an issue at school that I would fall on my sword about. So…my kids get their “junk” snacks when they get home. No biggie. [/quote]
