Letting the parents decide what to feed their children has worked fine since humans came into existence, now suddenly she thinks she knows more than history.

As much as I dislike the new bill that was passed, her statement must be looked at in the correct light. She is simply stating that parents may need help in choosing what is the best diet for their kids. It was worded badly but she is not the first person to mince words.

because the parents might not do it her way.

That doesn't make force right.

Seeing as what our public schools feed our kids nowadays.....I don't think we can leave it up to the government. Unless of course french fries is a complete nutritious meal.

The kids throw the 'good for you' stuff away. Look at any school trash can.

In a lot of schools they dont even bother serving it and the kids just choose what they want on their plate. I don't think french fries should even be a choice.

the cafeteria in the school i teach in has a salad bar. the kids go straight for it--it's what kids want, a personalized meal of bite sized morsels.

Unfortunately the right way will be by purchasing products from corporations who lobbied to be included, not because it's whats best for the people.

I can imagine a little kid with his mother standing behind her in the checkout line at the supermarket yelling at his Mom when Michelle's beeper goes off... "Look out Mom, she's backing up!" :D

This is ridiculous. The government and the FDA are collaborating with the food companies to get the worst food possible food out there. Not to mention creating a dependent class that has no time or education on how to eat properly.

Clearly people need to be told how to raise thier children. I mean look at this country, it is pathetic. Any country where the citizens elect a man like Barack Obama of thier own free will needs to be told what to do.
