I have 2 children who are in full time education and this weeks homework was for my oldest daughter was to write out a healthy main course meal with a healthy dessert and then colour it in make it look snazy and stuff, and then my youngest daughter come home with a paper plate and we were to make a plate of healthy food for them to take in, be it cut out food from a magazine or make our own out of paper, colouring or painting them in and so on you get the idea.

Well since that british chef Jamie oliver stuck his nose into how children get fed at schools its gone way out of control. Schools over here I dont know about anywhere else but here they have taken away all the fried type foods like fries,burgers and so on and brought in things like salad and grilled food. They have stopped the children from drinking soda and eating chocolate and potato chips. Also my oldest daughter was told that she needed to take in her own bottle so she could fill it with water and drink it whenever she wanted too, before that they used to have a small bottle of milk in the mornings and a digestive biscuit.

I dont mind them bringing in the whole healthy eating but in moderation, I mean introduce them along with the fried foods and let the children pick what they want to eat because there are some children who will eat fresh fruit and vegetables and then there are the children who wont eat them simply because they dont like thme or because they have never had the chance to eat them. But I mean come on banning food in a school you have got to be joking, I live in Wales but I have heard that in England they are stopping thechildren and searching their packed lunches and taking out all the junk food, I mean come on where do they get off on telling us as parents what we can and can not feed our children ? Its getting way beyond a joke they are making children these days way too health concious and its not right they will turn into nutcases if the government are not careful
