children and school meals...


A lot of school kids are now going to fast food outlets instead of eating school meals which are suppose to be a lot more healthy than they used to be.
The government are trying to get our children to eat more healthy foods at school and at home.
For as long as i can remember kids have always gone out at lunch time at school and they have always gone to fast food outlets.
The kids that are at primary school are not allowed to leave the school grounds, and have no option but to have school meals or packed lunches.
Its only when they start high school that they go out of the school grounds at lunch time and end up going to fast food outlets, not all children eat chips and burgers I have seen alot of children eating salad rolls, sausage rolls. What I'm trying to say is not all children eat unhealthy foods, you can't tell them what to eat. Kids will only eat what they like.

Instead of trying to force them to eat healthy school lunches they should be given choices like eat something healthy twice a week. Not all children are unhealthy because they eat fastfoods......
