@LadyGrace: fat and hyperness i think is the schools fault you cant expect elemantary school kids to sit in desks 8 hours a day. thats something i like abot my kids school they have 3 recesses a day for elemantary. 2 for middle and high school. and especially in k-2nd grade they do more activity type learning than act book work.
@Southernlady32: Sounds like a great school. First impressions of school for children are so very important. I believe it sets the stage for how they respond and learn, from then on.
@LadyGrace: if i was the mom id found every junk food i had in my kitchen and pack it the next day in my kids lunch with a note that might not be very lady like
@JaggedLittlePill: well sometimes it works had a friend whose daughter had severe asthma and the school had one of 2 options: send her to another class during high pollin days or change her clothes after recess. instead they told her best thing for her to do was keep her home on high pollin days. she posted it on fb inclding a picture of the note the school sent home to her and with a few calls to the school by some of us and a call to the board of education by her. they suddenly found a way to accomdate her
wow, really? I mean, I avoid raisins because fructose, sugars arent a great idea for a diabetic. But as a healthy snack for a growing child, I would have said they are at least as good as any other, and better than most.

Unless your child is bringing crack to school it really isn't her place to say Anyting about what they eat

When they started to talk about how bad grapes are, because the shape and plentiness of fruit on one plant, makes them "more dangerous" than other fruits that are sprayed during farming.
@ProdigalSummer: it wasnt me personally my kids school wouldnt dare but from my understanding it was a box of just plain raisins. i saw it on our local news fb page
Who the fuck do these morons think they are to tell a parent what to feed their kid. Seems to me they ought to be focusing on their job, which is teaching these kids something, if they are able to. Half the teachers these days can't pass a basic test but they cant be fired.
@Southernlady32: Well, it proves that for all the bloviating about how much they "care" about the kids, they really don't care at all. But half of us already knew that.
