The impression I had was the school officials just decided, with no warning and no buy-in from the parents.Henry Catehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097237237859928969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18436046.post-40554001292330045442009-03-19T13:11:00.000-07:002009-03-19T13:11:00.000-07:00Did the parents sign a contract that they would ab...Did the parents sign a contract that they would abide by a "no junk food" rule? My understanding is that Waldorf schools commonly require that as a precondition of enrollment (also no TV watching during the school year and no wearing clothes with commercialized characters). If families are told up front what the school's rules are and agree to them, then I don't really have a problem with it. I may think it's overly strict, but the school has the right to enforce their rules.Crimson Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254830856234479999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18436046.post-20348063253723547862009-03-19T12:28:00.000-07:002009-03-19T12:28:00.000-07:00Good grief, I was worried about the movies they we...Good grief, I was worried about the movies they were showing my kindergartner and the chocolate milk they were allowing him to have every single day. Now they are taking away any form of fun? Actually they have no right to take food from a child. Plus it might make them cry and feel bad about themselves.Robert M.
