My kids ask me to make them oatmeal as a favor to them. They don’t know that a zucchini muffin, a handful of almonds and a glass of milk isn’t a happy meal. I ask them “how happy is a fancy bag of low grade shit from some stupid clown anyway?”.I tell them not to let people get away with expecting them to be that damn gullible.I don’t think we have ever been to McDonald’s.
There are plenty of meals that,with little planning, are easier than going to McDonald’s and some can easily be eaten in a park.. or even in the car. It is just as easy to stop at a grocery store and pick out a few decent things that don’t need cooking and go to a park. We have sat down and ate in front of the local Henry’s many times. There is no fricken excuse for frequent sodas.[/quote]
Are your kids little, as in under 6? I suspect the real test will be when they HAVE been to Mcdonalds a few times – will they be as happy with almonds and milk ever again?
