[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what a terrible example you are setting for your child.

The only proper response to your child's comments on her teacher's eating habits is something like, "Sidney, a grown up has every right to eat what she wants whenever she wants, and it is none of our business what she eats."

If something else comes up about what she is eating, you could say something like, "I hope you would choose not to eat so many sweets, but it is none of our business what Mrs. Miller chooses to eat."

It is NONE of your business.  You have no place auditing a teacher's diet.  You are way out of line.[/quote]

OP here: everything concerning my child is my business. If you read carefully, my concern was not about teacher's diet, I specifically said that I don't care if she eats candies or carrots.
 
I respect your response to your child, but I can't tell my children that grown up has every right to eat what she wants whenever she wants. We teach our kids some manners, and manners includes some limitation on what you eat and where you eat. For me it is like a dress code -- when you are in professional environment, you don't wear what you want, you dress up professionally. You behave professionally. It all involves some limitations, right?

Again, I respect your point of view, but it is not consistent with our values.
