I'm puzzled. For 12 years, my mother packed me a lunch that I carried to school. Why is it necessary for schools to provide lunch (and breakfast) to students?

The cities are packed with people who don’t even know how to prepare food for themselves. They literally eat every meal at a restaurant or get take out from a restaurant. Their kids are lucky if they get a bowl of cereal for breakfast. You expect them to prepare a decent bagged lunch for their kids ? Especially when busy body teachers “reject” 90% of the stuff we used to get in our packed lunches as “unhealthy” and won’t let the kid eat it ? A PBJ, banana, chips, and soda would get trash canned by these teachers.

If parents want to pay for their kids to eat prepared hot meals that they actually enjoy, I think that is their business. As long as it is run at a profit, I have no problem with it.
