Made no sense 'til I learned that the school gives candy rewards for good behavior, IE: good attendance, grades, promptness, etc. They couldn't shake these colds until I insisted they stop eating all the sugar, & candy, that was given them--its a stupid, psychological Pavlov system. Trouble is, w/o thinking they might begin rewarding themselves later in college for accomplishments. Not a good method.

But my wife and I have been concerned about the nationwide trend toward making it incredibly easy for our kids to eat poorly at school. It's the kind of trend we would expect Utah not to be part of.

Thank you for considering this issue.

He is a cripple because he's over weight. I have studied compulsive eating for 40 years. I know our emotions respond first, before our reasoning mind. Our sense of taste & smell are our first responder senses. We can't think unless we plan to think. If a vending machine is right in front of us, and we are starved, we will make poor choices!
Let's teach preparedness!
