RE: “What happened to mothers teaching their daughters to cook good, nutritious meals instead of expecting the school to do it? lol”

I have a teacher friend here in Los Angeles — he’s a permanent ‘sub’ in the ghetto/barrio areas, where teachers are so burned out there’s a need for many subs every day.
Anyhow, he says not only do the elementary kids get free lunch, but they get breakfast, too! Then..when school is out, he sees the parents(?) taking the kids to the nearby fast food joints for more ‘food.’ And most of the parents/kids are quite overweight as it is!
Free breakfast and lunch — our tax dollars at work!
I feel for your friend. I can’t begin to imagine what he must see and go through every day. :(
They’ve started providing free lunches during the summer for any “child” 18 or under, too. Their numbers have never seemed to dwindle so I can only assume no one was starving under the previous “fix yer own friggin’ kid’s lunch with the food stamps we’re already giving you” system.
Funny how Mama can navigate Facebook, knows what every Kardashian sister is up to and figure out how to get the most bennies possible but is stymied by a simple meatloaf recipe!
