OP is not qualified to speak for the parents of the children who qualify for free breakfast. [/quote]

Not exactly.  If she confers with these parents, and most or some of them agree with her, I would have absolutely no problem with her being their spokeswoman if that is what they want.  But to me, it seems a bit presumptuous for her to petition to change the breakfast program if that is not actually what the people who are actually the intended beneficiaries want.  If they are on board she should go for it, but not without consulting them.

I'm the PP you're responding to, and that works for me.[/quote]

DP… sorry but this is preposterous… how presumptuous of you to assume people can't feed their kids and you'll be the surrogate parent and feed them thru the schools (and with money that is not even yours). Absolute arrogance.

No one was starving before these programs were instituted, even at the height of the depression we were able to take care of kids without feeding them in school. I lean liberal, and just like I dont want government in my bedroom but I dont want them in my kitchen either, NOR YOU! Its this kind of patronizing which got the Dems shellacked last November. Let parents be parents, let schools be schools, and let the socials programs we invest in for food stamps, snap, wic etc do their job.[/quote]
