No Pork Products In School


Recommended Posts

 

 

 

This is how i see it. There are fat people and there are thin people. Why do the thin people suffer a ban because of the fat people?

 

We bang on like f**k about not infringing the liberties of the decent members of communities that are a hotbed of crime. We can't apply broad punitive measures to them for the greater protection of society. And yet when it comes to unhealthy people, that lets face it are very easily identified as the problem individuals within a community, we do exactly that and make the whole of society suffer for it!

 

Total bollocks.

Encouraging parents to feed their kids healthier food is total bollocks?

No, forcing them to at the expense of others is.

If the whole school is doing the same, then what's the problem? It's not just about fat & thin, bad diets cause all kinds of other problems in kids. You've only got to look at those fat fcuks in America to realise encouraging kids to eat healthy at an early stage could have all kinds of benefits......

 

 

Healthy isn't determined by a sausage roll though is it. What's healthy about teaching kids "that food is bad, this food is good". I know of a girl that was taught like that and she developed a life long eating disorder. Educate them!

 

Why should kids/people that are healthy who eat this stuff be punished because of the ignorance of others?

If it's a genuine health thing I'm all in favour, if it's some kind of appeasement to non pork eaters I'm dead against it........That all I can say....

I hear you mate but I'd take a fair bet that it's got very little to do with improving general health. If they want to improve the health of kids make it so that only 1 parent has to work to afford t

Here's a start, parents.....buy a football not FIFA16 !!

It's just a start. My four year old isn't going to have the mental capacity to take on food science, you probably did at that age, but most people aren't like you.....haha

So your friend developed an eating disorder because someone tried to encourage her to eat better foods? Maybe she was on her way to some mental disorder anyway & anything could of triggered it?

 

Look, I know you are Mr liberty & I appreciate a lot of that line of thought & have to admit I raised an eyebrow at the list of rules my son had regarding his food at school, but now I think it's a good thing. He doesn't go into school & see all that crap & hence he doesn't ask for it. It can make life easier for a parent, as well giving a child at least a good chance with food....

 

.....going back to people we know. One of my friends at school was one the most unhealthy fat fcukers going, his parents were fat lazy fcuks that fed him total fcuking garbage & he had all kinds of problems & was dead by the age of 32.........so who knows?

IMO we should be teaching children how to look after themselves and keeping healthy must be central to that, fat or thin should eat a healthy diet in light of the growing evidence suggesting that processed meats are linked to increased incidence of certain cancers, poor diet linked to mental health problems etc etc so reducing these products is part of societies responsibility to children.

Basically being obese is not the only impact of an unhealthy diet and children's health is their and societies most important asset and maintaining that should be a central pillar of education.

Your views are totally mainstream mate so I accept I'm the radical here (generally am in fact). LOL

 

Yes I value the freedom for parents to feed their kids sausage rolls over the alleged health benefits of blanket banning them. Kids can't be expected to be responsible for their health, I agree, but this is about parents not kids really.

 

Fundamentally I disagree with this. I'd sooner see a good balanced education on health than these blanket bans.

My daughter moved here from Bradford. Never a better thing happened to her. As far as I'm concerned no one tells me what my kids will and will not eat. I've said before I cook fresh meals most nights and tbh if they started this bollocks, I'd cook pork products everyday and send them in for her bait. This is getting ridiculous, pandering to everybody but our own countrymen and women.

I decide what i feed my kids, not some toff headteacher that probably doesn't even have children...a lot of the parents at these schools seem to take it on the chin and accept the stupid rules that the school implement...like f**k would i

The majority of these 'links' and correlations are due to associated factors. People that eat a lot of processed meat tend to have piss poor diets generally but the blame is heaped on the processed meat. Low fibre has caused high meat diets to be 'linked' to colon cancer. Low veg has caused meat to be 'linked' to all sorts of deficiencies. General lazy lifestyles that are common place amongst those that eat a lot of processed meat have caused such products to be 'linked' to obesity and heart disease.

I apply the 'Viking method' to rearing my kids, whether it's cosleeping , breast feeding, whatever feels natural to mother and child, my boy was teething on 10oz BBQ pork steaks as a baby, there's nothing they won't eat, the 4 year old will demolish 4 eggs for breakfast, free range out the garden, they help themselves to beans and tomatoes out of our meagre veg plot, following our example. They love rice cooked in chicken broth and the older one frequently tells the missus when his brother is crying that ' he needs meat mummy's haha. I love to cook for them and always season food with salt and pepper and use butter at will. They spend most of there day playing outside and their evenings are books and toys, until I return home and buy a big telly lol. Variety early on is important, but so is a laid back attitude to food as well as creating an appetite through activity, Atb Joe

Exactly the same as that mate.

Look at France, they don't have a mountain of bloaters walking around dying because they have a good food culture

I've just re-read the story & it's basically the same policy as my sons village school....give or take.....

 

Had this rule came in after a period of time of my son being there, maybe I'd of reacted in a similar way to those parents tbh.....I'm not sure, but the rules were already in place. However, my sons school is a great example of a small village school. Beautifully run & the older kids up to 11 are brilliant with the youngsters........it's just hard to fault really. So I'm happy to go with the flow on that one......;-)

 

.....no ones ever called me mainstream before! Haha....
