Once again the Government is interfering in our lives and has banned popular "unhealthy" canteen food from school tuck shops. Their reasoning - our kids are getting fatter!!! This is completely the wrong way of going about it - they are taking away even more social responsibility from parents. Once again, they are getting schools to educate children (albeit by force) on something which should be done by parents at home.
Does Sue Kedgley et al really think that banning unhealthy food from school canteens will make kids eat better - NO WAY - you have to board up the fast food chains, the bakeries and the dairies to stop them!!! Besides - I haven't seen that many fat kids - their parents on the other hand are a different matter. That says it all really.
New Zealand should stop being such a nanny state and encourage social responsibility - which I know goes against the grain of the Socialist, lefty brigade because they are growing their future voters. But it will be interesting to see which schools tell the government to naff off and leave them to educating children which is their primary responsibility NOT parenting!!!
