No time? Really?

I leave for work at 4:45am. I pack a lunch that includes a meat and cheese sandwich, salad or raw veggies and dip, dessert, salty snack and water for the kiddos before they ever wake up.

Their father feeds them a good warm breakfast before taking them to school, before he goes to work.

If we can do it, so can others.

First off, good for you taking charge of your children's meals. That is the job of parents, not the government.

Second, however, you may want to ask if there's refrigeration available for the sandwich, or if you can include something in the lunch box to keep the meal cold. Having meat sit in warm or hot temperatures from 4:45 a.m. until noon may not be a good idea.

But that's your decision as parents. Government needs to stay out of it.
