Here’s a crazy idea. Kids, eat your ****** vegetables! You can have your McDonald’s when you get home.

No wonder we are a nation of fatties. Fat parents are not teaching kids how to eat properly and are raising fats kids.

It’s a cycle of abuse.

I don’t think it’s any of the gov’t’s business if the kids or the parents are fat. When you start saying that parents are not feeding their children “properly”, you’re opening a big can of worms where the gov’t gets to tell families how to raise their kids.

That ends in BITS.

Your comment is kind of random, as it doesn’t really have to do with the political premise of the article nor the likely reason the poster posted it. One could imply you think the premise of forcing certain foods on kids is good policy.

To a point of fact;

My parents and I all have “ideal” BMIs and always have- it is just natural based on inefficiency of metabolism.

I eat like crap and always have and I don’t gain a pound. I’m 5’10 and 153lbs at 31, the ratio has held since 5th grade.

Same with them for their respective height weight.

Get a grip and a clue, making rules and forcing options assuming the worst or based on the people with the worst case scenarios doesn’t work in a free-society-IN ANY CONTEXT.

It is thoughts and mind-sets like that that always accompanies the onset of totalitarianism.

Good Grief! Sure, parents of fat kids should teach them the impact their food choices has on them, what that has to do with forced school food choices in a free society I haven’t the foggiest.

Here’s a crazier idea. Stop giving out EBT cards, welfare, and free medical. Then its their business and not yours.

You do realize that a 1/4 pounder contains a serving of veggies? In fact 4 oz of meat, slice of cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, salad dressing, and a serving of bread is a fairly nutritious meal.

You have obviously been conditioned by the leftists about so called 'junk food'.

Why don’t you eat their veggies for them. Eat all you want, your body your choice or is that only for sex?
