[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 354122, member: 6546"] Sleepless-- When I read your post, I admit that I ddin't get what you were so upset about. I actually figured - Heck! The kid ate from the meat group, the breads group and the dairy group - that's pretty good....compared to what my difficult child will eat at school. At home, our kids eat healthy. Dinner is usually home-made (and I don't mean home-made as in I whipped up a package of mac-n-cheese). The kids eat plenty of fresh fruits and veggies...drink milk. Soda is an occassional treat. Both kids buy lunch. My son will trade parts of his lunch for different snacks from other kids. Sometimes he trades the school lunch drink for another kid's fruit juice or something....so not too bad. difficult child? She will trade the whole lunch or skip it entirely and opt for a candy bar and soda for lunch instead. Frankly, I have a huge problem with candy and soda machines in the school. There is also a lot of fundraising going on where kids will sell candy to raise money for this club or that. If kids wanna eat hot dogs, that's OK in my book. But lose all the candy, soda, and other vending machine junk. There's just no excuse for it. [/QUOTE]
