Yes My Friends, YOU, Parents and Very Possibly Grandparents, May be looking at the Federal Government Coming to YOUR HOME and Removing Your Child for What, Abuse or Any Form Of Mistreatment?
NO, They'll be taking your children, because they're well feed!!!
Like when my husband was a child, the food groups that were important for a Healthy Child are now The Enemy it would seem.
OH, Candy and Soda's are never a good thing, But Whole Milk and Real Cheese and Peanut Butter sandwiches on White Bread!
For SHAME!
Sorry Folks, But I don't like the idea of the Government getting into the business of Weighing children and monitoring what their eating.
Is it Because I was Born in China and had My Life Monitored and Controlled By A Government?
You think I'm Kidding!

Bureaucrats from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will weigh and measure children in daycare as part of a study mandated by First Lady Michelle Obama’s Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act.
The agency published a notice in the Federal Register on Friday proposing data collection on what meals are served in professional and home daycare facilities and how much physical activity children perform.
Aside from assessing how healthy the food in daycare is, the USDA will also check the weight and height of roughly 3,000 children.
The study is required by section 223 of Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act, which was championed by Mrs. Obama and passed in 2010. The main aspect of the law implemented new standards for school lunches.
A lesser-known requirement of the law is the “Study on Nutrition and Wellness Quality in Childcare Settings (SNAQCS),” which the USDA announced Friday. The public will have 60 days to comment.
The USDA said the data collection is important since more than 30 million kids are in daycare.
“Good nutrition is a key to proper childhood development, but not enough is known about the food children are eating in childcare and related programs,” the agency said. “In 2011, 32.7 million children were in a regular childcare arrangement while their parents worked or pursued other activities outside of the home, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.”
