Who's Responsibility is this anyways?

Homemaking or (Designing) can be really stressful at times, it is a full time job, especially when it comes to getting nice healthy meals on the table before everyone runs out the door on their way? Excuses can range from being up most the night with a new baby or sick child to juggling the schedule with enough time for menu planning and grocery shopping? Plus trying to make it Healthy on top of that! Wouldn't it be nice sometimes to just have a personal cook?? Think of all the more things we could accomplish? We already have so much to squeeze into our day! Well guess what......If not already in your schools it will be Coming to a school near you!!! Dinner and after school snacks are even being provided in some schools! Wow ! A Parents job just made easier! Check it out!
"Healthy-Hunger-free kids act of 2010" over @gov.org
We may not even have to qualify for this program! By eliminating paper application and census to determine school wide income.....everyone may be eligible? This is what
First Lady Michelle Obama even tells us:
"We can all agree that in the wealthiest nation on earth all children should have basic nutrition they need to learn and grow and to pursue their dreams because in the end, nothing is more important than the health and well being of our children-nothing."
I'd swear as innocent as this may all sound........Our Families are the target! What next? Really?
Did you know that there 17 million children living in "food insecure households?"
There are 1 out of 3 American children considered obese? In fact have you heard? Obesity is a Threat to our National Security?
What is gonna happen when our Country goes broke?? It was never set up to provide food, clothing and shelter for everyone? Will our Children have a hard awakening when that day comes when they "realize" that there is no such thing as a free lunch? Will they know how and have the characteristics it take to provide for their own? Our Grandchildren?
By providing everyone with Breakfast, Lunch, and dinner, will that REALLY solve the problems?
USA Today reports that on the move foundation found that 71% of children get information about how to be healthy from their Mothers, while just 43% get that information from their fathers.
What If your kitchen table could talk? What would it have to say? Could it say something about the importance of Families to your Grandchildren?
While putting a Healthy meal on the Table may seen like a sacrifice.....It may actually be a blessing for generations to come!
