[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you people feeding these kids so much junk? My kids eat these things, but when you consider how often there are constant school parties, other parties, sweets, the whole trend is insane. We are raising sugar addicts and then wondering how it happened. Stop overfeeding your and my kids. Simple as that. Pizza water carrots and cookie? So, two crap unhealthy parts to carrots?! You know what, you all deserve the obesity crisis because you love creating the obesity in your own kids. I don't even give a crap how sanctimonious I sound.[/quote] Most schools have 2-3 parties a year so if your kids are sugar addicts then that is on you, not the school. Many kids don't get invited to outside parties after preschool ends. You should organize the parties if you don't want what is being offered. [/quote] DP, but it's the overall trend to have too much junk food everywhere. For many kids, it's not just the 2-3 class parties, but it's also the 25 birthdays celebrated at school with cupcakes or other treats, the snacks at every team sport or girl scouts or whatever, all of the candy given with valentines, etc. It is pretty ingrained in American culture that kids can't do any activities or gather in any way without some sort of junky snack being offered.
