My granddaughter is in pre-school. Yes, pre-school. She refuses to eat the Obama lunch but the school has a rule that if you pack a lunch it must be the SAME Mon-Friday. No changes. The policy is designed to eventually break the back of parents who opt out of the federally-mandated Obama lunch. It’s such a big problem they are looking for another pre-school.
Have your son/daughter pack her a different lunch.
If they confiscate it, have her/him write a letter-to-the-editor of the local paper.
They will back off from YOUR grandaughter, since they don't want to give up the federal money.
If they don't back off, she/he can be an ice pick in their ear.
They're taking your tax money from you by force, and forcing your grandaughter into their government school. They're holding YOUR grandaughter hostage.
If people roll over for such small potatoes, there's no hope of ever rolling back the almighty State.
I actually ran for school committee in my home town, in retaliation for 12 years in the schoolag archipelago. They couldn't stop me. I had a field day.
If you can, I suggest going to the school and having lunch as much as possible with your granddaughter. Bring her lunch with you. And if they ask to see what it is simply tell them to go away as it is none of their business what you feed her.
I suggest a healthy amount of bacon! Bacon rules!!!
