My! When I was a kid in the 1950's we did not have all these 'programs' and we were not all 'entitled' to anything. You either bought lunch or brought it in a brown paper bag. Most often, I brought lunch ... and my family were well to do mill owners. And I never felt deprived for eating like every one else. And I did not squawk one bit because I liked peanut butter and jellies sandwiches even if they were perhaps not the most nutritious thing a kid could eat.
Also, I wish kids could have gotten jobs like they once did before the Roosevelt mentality mid-20th century began to set in. Learning responsibility and having my own money would not have hurt me one bit. It would have helped.
Hot dogs when I was a kid cost about twenty-five cents. Something like that. Now what to they cost? I don't know because I won't pay two, three or more dollars for a hot dog. And that's where all our 'entitlement' mentality has gotten us ... plus the MIC and perpetual war mongering, government Health Terrorism and Control, with the 'money' inflated away to zilch! Me? I rather have pay your own way and bye-bye Nanny. And besides, kids in the my town? Nobody was starving and looking skin and bones just arrived from the concentration camp. Nobody!

Correct, daverb. And there was never more than one obese kid in any class, if any obese, and that kid was always named. “Fatty”.
And all the food was organic and homemade from scratch. Kids were much healthier.
