you had parents who either packed your lunch or at least bought decent food so you could pack your lunch

You cant even imagine what a rarity that is in the food-deserts (and parent responsibility deserts) of the cities and many 'burbs too

[MrB]

You know, they not only foster parental responsibility deserts,

they RESENT the idea that YOU think you should be responsible for your children.

That’s a lot of the leftist argument when you propose that people should be responsible for themselves - they say that people can’t be responsible for themselves, and imply that you are a bigot, not for expecting them to be like you, but simply for being responsible yourself.

Yes indeed. And the only reason I bought my lunch those last three years was because I was forced to do so. The school district had a policy forbidding us from bringing our own lunches. Government always knows what's best for us, doncha know.
