I wish we heard as much in the news about the starving children in this counrty instead of all of the children who are overweight. Several schools in our area are participating in the backpack program where food is sent home with needy children to get them threw the weekend until they come back to school on Monday. It's foods that the children can fix themselves.
I have a very dear friend who went to work at a Pre-School and discovered at nap time that a little boy had brought half of his sandwich back from the cafeteria with him. When she told him he wasn't allowed to do that, he told her he was taking it home because he had nothing at home to eat.
Don't get me wrong, I do understand the long term health risks with children being over weight. It just seems to me that it's more politically correct to talk about fat kids and just sweep the ugliness of starving children under the rug.
