[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the end of the day she is not hurting anyone - if she's got the energy for it then good.  Personally, I'd rather all that crap out of schools during the day so that I can give all that crap to them at home. I'm not a health nut, but it is really necessary for kids to get candy at a halloween party THEN go trick or treating??

  I agree with this. Although I too would not want to befriend her and would steer clear socially, she is not hurting anyone at all. In fact she is trying to make the school a more healthful environment. If she wants to put so much time and energy into this movement so be it. YOu can feed your kid whatever you want at home. She can have candy, pita chips, and straight old sugar water if you want her to...[/quote]

I agree with both of the PPs.

OP, you can feed your kid whatever you want at home.  This mom is trying to make things better at the school.  I see nothing wrong with it.  
(and, I'm not an anti-sugar nazi at all.... my kids and I eat plenty of crap)

But, why not make the schools a 'better' food environment?  Just like sodas in the vending machines at school.  Why is that necessary?  Why was strawberry milk a necessity at the school lunches?  They took it away, and the kids lived.  You're welcome to give your kid all the strawberry milk you want at home, but I don't think MCPS needs to support it.[/quote]
