If you can't raise a child properly keep it in your pants or keep your legs closed. If all else fails abortion is still legal. Ask what you can do for yourself not what others can do for you.

so a school opting to serve fresh fruit as a snack is taking over parenting? interesting...

The school should serve fresh fruit just as a restaurant does. But just like a restaurant whoever is eating the fruit should be the one paying for it. Even better how about the parents putting fruit in the kid's lunch box. Maybe then the school can concentrate on things like reading and math rather than diet and exercise.

Just make the fat kids walk to and from school

i can't believe you have an issue with schools choosing a healthier type of snack to serve than what they used to.

I don't have an issue with choice in fact I applaud it. I have an issue with tax payers subsidizing the choice as in $50 plus a year per kid. Especially when these kids have last names like Wrigley, Dreyfuss and Pritzger.
