This mom packs her daughter's lunch. It is a turkey and cheese sandwich on whole wheat bread with a banana and apple juice. (I used to get bologna on white bread, soda and Twinkees)
The State's agent inspects the lunchbox and tells the little girl her lunch does not meet the States criteria. Are you kidding me?
If you like this kind of government control vote for Obama. Preschooler’s Homemade Lunch Replaced with Cafeteria “Nuggets”
Time to pull your kids out of public school. This is an outrage. The parents should sue.
This is thanks to Michelle Obama, who thinks she knows better than parents. Who the hell is she? She doesn't know squat!
I was just going to say.... yet ANOTHER reason to homeschool! I can not imagine what I would do if someone had the gall to tell my child the lunch that I sent with her was not "good enough".
I know what you mean. If that happened to us, there would be hell to pay. We home schooled our from the time our one daughter was in 3rd grade and the other in 1st. Prior to that, they were in a private Christian school.
Home schooling is the only way to go, and ours did very well, scoring higher than their public school counterparts (high 90 percentile) on every standardized test they ever took (required each year here in Ohio for kids not enrolled in the public school system).
For their "socialization skills" (which the critics will always bring up!), they were in girl scouts, 4-H , church youth group, Bible quiz team.
In 4-H, they were on the Junior Fair Board. Both participated in the Ohio State Fair, and won awards (my one daughter got First Place on one of her projects).
My youngest daugher went to Ozark Christian College in Joplin MO with full scholarship.
How is it irrelevent? It shoots the entire story all to hell. One of the first things you do is ask the person, in this case the one who supposedly took away the lunch, for his side of the story. My God that's just basic
You know what they say about opinions....
It does not shoot the story to pieces, that has already been taken care of or did you not read that part?

Now, if they sent me a bill because they had to "supplement" my childs nutrition. I would just as fast turn around and send them a bill for my services in supplementing my childs education in spite of the sh*tty public education system.
This country is going straight down the drain.
Our school district is having a lot of problems with our local school board right now and hopefully it will result in some jail time for a couple of former board members and former District Super...I'm getting tired of having to subsidize all of these dead weight teacher's aides,resource managers,hall monitors,assistant secretaries,playground monitors,board members and their families...nepotism is raging unchecked here and has been for a long time...if you are a family member of somebody connected,they'll create a job title for you.
My oldest starts HS next year and has been in the public school system since pre-K so we are going to ride it out with her, but I'm about 90% sure that our youngest will be home schooled from day one.
Luckily her Mom is a hell of a lot smarter than I am(that's not saying much tho') and her only dumb move so far was marrying me
Like every other job,there are good ones and bad ones..educators are no different.
Yes, your opinion is faulty and based on erroneous information provided by a reporter who did not do her job.
Or don't you believe that responsible reporting should involve multiple sides of the story? Perhaps it should only include fabricated information to suit your agenda?
Thank God you never worked in my newsroom; you'd be out the door in 10 seconds.
Was Obama himself at that school? Was it him personally that took away the kid's lunch? No, he wasn't. Did he give the order? Was he in the White House Situation room amidst a bevy of high ranking officials and he was asked for his OK to take the lunch? No he wasn't.
FDR did not personally imprison every American of Japanese descent, yet it still happened.
Lunch police are only the beginning of America's woes under Progressive rule.

When one has nothing else, personal attacks begin.
You don't like the story contact the reporter but it does not take away the FACT it happened. There were multiple sides to the story you did not like the way they were placed before you. If you are the journalist/editor you claim, you would understand and support the mother's decision to remain anonymous.

Yeah. Because I don't like half-truths, half-baked premises, and outright fabrications in a so-called news story.
I'm surprised that anyone with any shred of intelligence would think this story is good journalism.
Maybe I shouldn't be.
