bad parents

i feel sorry for the poor kids who see all the cool ads on TV, and then persuade their lazy Mums and dads to go to maccas every day before and after school to eat. Working there, I see the same families come in every day and get the same meals for breakfast, lunch, dinner. most of the mothers couldn't be bothered cooking.Dads take them for breakfast on the way to school. Nice people- great kids- but not very healthy! I mean, when I was a kid Maccas was a treat that we would get on a Saturday for lunch every 2 months at most- and even then we weren't allowed to drink Coke! I thank my parents now, because i'm more health conscious and I feel good about myself. It's irresponsible of parents to feed their kids with this slop everyday, expecting children to get the sustenance they need. Nutritionists wouldn't recommend that people eat McDonald's every day- especially not kids. If you respect yourself and want what's best for your children, take that extra hour in the day to prepare fresh, wholesome meals, and appreciate the taste of fine food every now and again.
