For parents with school age kids

If your school confiscated any junk food you sent in your kids pack lunch and asked you to instead give them healthy options like fruit juice apples sandwiches etc or 2 pound for a healthy school meal would you be happy to do so or moan that they were out of order .

My kids school doesn't allow chocolate and crisps. I don't mind as I don't like them eating junk food.

@ZenKitzune I agree I was the same with my kids .I asked because I was watching the news last night and parents were complaining about it, which I don't get, the schools are just looking out for their kids health you would think they would be pleased about it .

@Rhodesianman people are uneducated about what this stuff is doing to their kids and tbh the government guidelines are based on very little actual data and research. Unless you really look into things yourself then it's easy to remain uninformed.

@Rhodesianman Those parents are lazy so and sos and can't be bothered to eat healthy themselves. Getting their children healthy food means they have to have healthy food and they don't want to do that because then they would lose their own tyres.
