It's not even the fast food. Kids in my school go to the corner store and get a bag of chips or this crazy sugary 'juice' if they aren't going to McDs. Healthy snacks? I know Pre-K kids who already say "I don't eat fruit". Parents...I just don't know what's going on with them and teaching about healthy food choices.

afterschool sports or music or whatever is exactly what these kids need. Sigh.
