43. Banning non-nutritious lunches is no substitute ...
... for actually teaching kids about nutrition, and that's what they desperately need. I realize it's not something the children are tested on, but it's a vital life skill. We need to take the time, especially in the early grades, and teach these children what a balanced diet is, how to read food labels, and how to decide what foods are good for them, and what to avoid.
