[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you ride the bus anywhere in the District, you can see that obesity is a problem for many of our fellow citizens. It is really a crisis. Often, this problem starts in childhood. If DCPS has some sort of new program/mandate to play a role in addressing this problem, I say "bravo". Certainly, it would seem to align with the social-emotional piece. At the same time, we can counsel our children to keep personal information private.[/quote] It is absolutely a crisis that we will all pay for in increased healthcare costs for these individuals down the road. We rely on the government to provide public education for the common good and I view educating children about good health no differently. For those families that would object to DCPS' efforts on this front, inquire about the ability to opt out as it is possible for sex education. [/quote]
