A child learns better if itis hungry, crying from humiliation and desperate. Smartboards are cheap necessities, whereas a chunk of slow cooked cheap cut of meat and some lettuce, tomatoes and carrots are opulent luxury.

It is not as if research has shown that nutrition in those first years is extremely important. Who wants more of those pesky tall, healthy kids with properly developed brains and internal organs. /s

TBF that one's internal organs seem bountiful. Perhaps too bountiful.

Obese kids feel hunger too. And her obesity is even better reason to have access to nutritional food at least once per day.

So give the students fresh, healthy, nutritional food for free and then you can rightfully blame the parents for giving the kid junk. Pointing fingers does nothing, offer an alternative and let the other side shoot it down and you can honestly say you've tried.

Obesity can be caused by eating too much, but it can also be caused just by eating too many carbohydrates, the chief ingredient in our cheapest foods.
