A mother in Hoke County complains her daughter was forced to eat a school lunch because a government inspector determined her home-made lunch did not meet nutrition requirements. In fact, all of the students in the NC Pre-K program classroom at West Hoke Elementary School in Raeford had to accept a school lunch in addition to their lunches brought from home.

There is a school district that does not allow lunch to be brought from home, to force the kids to eat the school lunches.
I can’t find it right now, but it was covered here on FR.

What if the girl had food allergies? Also the inspector had no idea if at dinner time mom piled the veggies on the child’s plate and the child ate every last bite.
Also the inspector seems woefully ignorant of nutrition. Since when are chicken nuggets regarded as more healthful than turkey and cheese?
The inspection of school lunch systems should consist of making sure the food is prepared in a sanitary manner, that the correct proportions are being served and that there are no obvious financial sheninigans. Policing what student’s eat is way beyond the scope of the job. The only policing that should occur is to take note of what foods from the school lunch end up in the garbage most often.
“I had a progressive once tell me, flat out, that our kids did not belong to us, and it was the state’s responsibility to raise them.”
Hey, come on!
Tell us the rest!
How long were you in jail for punching them out?
My daughter is grown now with kids of her own.
But when she was in 2nd grade, being a rambunctious child, we were called in to her elementary school for a ‘talk’ with a school counselor about her behavior.
He suggested that our child be put on some ‘medication’ to facilitate her education.
I threatened to throw the bastard out the window.
We never heard from them again.
She graduated HS with honors.........
Twenty years ago when my children were in school, I would have lunch with them. The amount of food that was thrown away was staggering then, and I am not surprised that it hasn’t changed. Most kids eat what they want and so does Michelle. I don’t understand how Michelle thinks its okay for her to dine here http://www.examiner.com/ny-in-new-york/michelle-obama-dines-out-exquisitely-swordfish-chocolate-sculpture and then try to force kids to eat the way she thinks they should.
Little by little, the government is trying to control us but most of all our children.
That happens to my child and I would esplode all over that public screwell.
My response:
“My, aren’t WE a commie scumbag.”
Just try it lefties. There will be blood in the streets if you come after our kids. Yours.
Lockhart ISD in Lockhart Texas will not allow kids to bring anything with peanuts in it to thier campi.
I don’t agree with it but its for the shildren...
My theory on this situation is that the lefty that imposed this was
1) attempting to justify what they’re being paid for
and
2) didn’t think it was “faaaaaair” that this child had loving parents that made a lunch for her and other children don’t.
More than likely it's to boost the numbers of kids eating school lunches in order to get Federal money or something like that.
No, the whole idea is to make work for school lunchroom staff. Who, by the way, are unionized.
So when my kid was in the first grade, we had to pack a snack for them to eat before lunch. I was not into snacks in my house. We pretty much waited meal to meal to eat and the meals were plenty to make it through the day. He always had a good breakfast before school and did not need a morning snack before lunch.
So I struggled to pack that snack. Most kids ate chips or cookies...we did not do that in our family and I did not want junk food around. I packed fruit and veggies but my son complained because everyone else was eating “good stuff” and he was stuck with healthy stuff. So I took half a peanut butter and banana (or apples, pears, etc.) sandwich and cut it into bite sized squares for him to have at snack time and that pleased him. Kids approved of his snack. I gave him the other half of his sandwich for lunch.
The dummy teacher yelled at me for giving him “lunch” at snack time and I told her to stop stuffing the children and wait for lunch for them to eat like normal people. :)
Now if they had a student’s Tea Party, they could organize a food fight in protest...mystery nuggets make great projectiles...”the slop heard round the world” ;^)
BINGO! That is exactly what it is about.

Please tell me that you immediately shot that person dead.
