Schools throw out more food than they consume.

Dear Parents,

I have received word from Federal Programs Preschool pertaining to lunches from home. Parents are to be informed that students can only bring lunches from home if there is a medical condition requiring a specific diet, along with a physicians note to that regard.

Dear School Administrator,

Tell the folks at Federal Programs Preschool where they can stick that instruction, your choice of locations. If you interfere with my child eating the nutritious lunch I prepared by following their directives, I’ll have your head on a stick.

Mom & Dad

My son would probably have starved under that rule. First, he thought standing in line was a waste of his short lunch time. Second, he usually hated whatever the cafeteria was serving. And third, he used to actually sell half the short turkey sub I would make him for a quarter. It would have cramped his money making ability. :)

Not the bathroom per say, but WHICH BATHROOM.

Yes, you are right. We also have to worry about "which bathroom" Disgusting, but true.

With so many from the younger generations ‘allergic’ to Peanuts, how come the school can serve PB & Jelly on white bread sandwiches????

I don’t get it.

There were 4 kids in our family. There was NO cafeteria in either the high school or the one room school we all attended.

We made PB & strawberry jam sandwiches every day for all 4. It took a whole loaf of bread for this chore—every day.

There was cold fresh water brought in every day in the one room school, as it had NOT running water.

The high school had a dispenser which we could get a small carton of milk out of for 5 cents. We all were out of high school before a cafeteria was installed with a large addition to the school. The one room school was sold & turned into a house. It is still there today.

They really want to have complete control over the child: morals, religion, opinions, and food. The earlier they get them the sooner they can mold them into little conforming sheepish marxists.

All sustenance must come from the state. Education, health care, food. Gets them used to depending on government instead of a loving family. Easier to start dishing out the Soylent Green.

I’d much rather send something from home that I “know” my child will eat for lunch. He may or may not eat what is offered in the school cafeteria, and sometimes I wouldn’t either. On those days should he just be hungry all day at school? Most of all, we as parents are “supposed” to actually raise our kids.. not the government

It seems to me that the liberal establishment feels very comfortable in their knowledge that they have educated, indoctrinated or otherwise conditioned a sufficient number of people which allows them to reach for greater control.

The conditioning, IMHO, is not what most folks think of when it comes to advancing their “progressive agenda”.

They are, and have been, conditioning people to accept “Uncertainty” about how they run their lives.

The concept is to remove the individual by undermining their ideas of self-sufficiency and replacing it with an all knowing and all caring Government.

If they are so concerned about the “farmers” why do we bring in all this foreign food, etc. instead of using what is grown/raised in the US?

The states have never delegated to the federal government, via the Constitution, the speciific power to regulate school lunches.

Sadly, the reason that citizens get upset when the federal government oversteps it constitutionally limited powers by establishing such policies is that citizens are not being taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers.

Maybe all kids should be required to wear T-shirts saying “PROPERTY OF U.S. GOVERNMENT”.
