[Hoot Gibson]

Good Point SD. Sad to say, but I think this happens more than we realize.



I agree Hoot, but in many school districts, careterias have changed greatly over the past several years, now they are restricted in the amount of food given to the children. Due to the child obesity problems, schools do not give out seconds to the kids. I think it's just another way to waste tax payer monies and a shame that schools are throwing out perfectly good food instead of giving it to children who really need it.

What you are saying is true but it is just another reason why the federal government meddling in public schools needs to end.

I know that in the past, certain principals in the Johnson County school system have instructed cafeteria workers to give certain children as much food as they wanted because they knew the kids were not getting fed at home. Rules have probably changed since that took place but if they have, then those are rules that need to be broken if at all possible. I cannot imagine any Johnson County jury would convict a school employee of any crime done to prevent a child from starving.
