[quote=Anonymous]Ok, I know it's ridiculous to compare our DCs' lives to our own when we were their ages, but: From kindergarten through eighth grade, I had pretty much the same thing for lunch: PBJ (on white bread!), Utz potato chips, a fruit roll-up, two Oreo cookies, and a box of milk. Occasionally, I'd have a tuna sandwich instead of the PBJ. I was a thin, active child, who grew into a slim, active adult. I understand portion control and nutrition. My parents might not have had the best eating habits, but they taught me plenty, and what I didn't learn from them, I picked up later in life. YMMV, but my kid can certainly have a PBJ (on whole wheat), a cookie, or some fruit snacks every now and then. He also gets plenty of healthier food, but I see nothing wrong with the above as "part of a balanced diet.@[/quote]
