[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not sure people outside your bubble really feel as strongly about this as you do.

I have no issue with screen time. Children need to be technically capable. I spend my entire work day staring at a screen. This is how professional jobs are structured. I want the schools teaching my kid how to use technology - including learning on screens.

I also don’t understand the outrage over occasional snacks for celebration. DC had a parent once that organized a “garden” party where the students celebrated an event with carrots and celery. The students thought it sucked - because it does suck. Your household rules of no sugar ever do not match most the nation. It’s not really fair to the other students to have your views pushed upon them. [/quote]

I don't know the OP and therefore I'm outside their bubble, and I disagree with you. I very much care about things such as screen time and the food my kids eat, and all of that is controlled at home and their school does a great job controlling it at school as well (for example the policy is to not allow candy, chips, juice, etc. to be packed in a lunch).[/quote]
