Stop feeding our children neurotoxins!

HELP ME IN TAKING A STAND TO HAVE OUR COUNTY SCHOOLS MONITOR WHAT KIND OF SNACKS AND TREATS OUR CHILDREN ARE EATING AT SCHOOL

Ever wonder why your kids come home so out of hand on certain days and then like angels on others? Go ahead and take the time to ask your kids to name everything they had aten on their bad days and see what they say. Teachers think they're being nice and friendly when they hand out a red lollipop to their students to reward them for getting so many points at the end of the week.. Or other various rewards. Then the kids come home whack out!

Now, when a teacher figure from the school goes to get these tasty treats for her students.. She's more than likely not going to go down to your closest health good store (for example: Richard's Whole Foods, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and other stores of that nature) and spend the extra buck for the stuff that is made without high frutose corn syrup, no artificial flavoring, dye free or artificial sweeteners.

Okay, to all the moms out there.. We all know what society says is bad for our diets, right? How do you think these processed foods make our children react. All that junk we as adults try our hardest to stay away from, our kids get at least once or twice a week at school.

Its not just the teachers that have to have their part in keeping our children healthy, it's our's as parents as well. My children are both in their elementary years of schooling and it is our duty to make sure that the classroom has a snack! I can say for me, your child will not be eating a bunch of garbage when it's my turn to bring in snacks for the kids!

Because of what our world has turned into we are no longer able to home bake cupcakes and other birthday treats. However; those treats are avaliable in our local bakery department at our grocery stores. Have you ever read the ingredients? They are not very friendly. Especially to the brain of a child that could be running around on a massive sugar high.

Not only does all these high processed sweets make our children's brains work differently.. It also affects their physical health. Obesity is at it's highest and we need to do whatever it takes to make sure our children are safe and healthy.

There are only so many holidays out of the year.. Raise of hands who sent their child to school this year on Valentine's Day and they came home with a bag of candy? And now a show of hands to the parent who knows how hard it is to pry a bucket of candy out of their children's arms that they got on Halloween?

How are our children suppose to learn anything in a school setting while their brains are buzzing like an adult's does after drinking a few Redbulls?

If you have taken the time out of your day to read this, then you might as well go the rest of the way and we can work together to ban these harsh chemicals from taking their affect on who matters the most in our lives, our children.
