I don't think kids not wanting school lunch is all that new. Why back when I had young kids I was on medical leave for a year and a half. My disability income was way less than it took to maintain things. I signed my 2 elementary school age kids up for free lunch since they qualified. They would not eat it. This was in 1985, way way before Michelle.

Oh Masie, Masie....what am I going to do with you, lol....Here are a couple of major news from the research field:

Giving i have a bit of clue what's going on in there,...if one would like to understand what's research (again back to the basics), the primary debate is all about pretending to be objective, which is now seen as not working out, but only, depending of the ideology of the researcher, which means: subjective, other synonyms: biased, motivated by other reasons than the research in itself, but for political or personal (and that's another big debate) gains. Based on the manner the content of this blog is presented, it clearly says loud that issue. Maisie: a research has to study both sides, (not political, or economical) but compare sides that oppose, which this study as presented here, does not say at all, but only one sided, based on the actions of overall well intended means of only one person.

Then you may know that in the field, it doesn't mean that if one studied for so man-years, is necessarily useful what he/she is doing.

Then, what left me more perplexed in this so-called study, the wording: "bad" or "good" mother, implies they're words belonging to the psych field, and a good one (cause there too there are so many superficial and non-sensical research studies). A sociologist (other than maybe the new emerging psychosocial field), cannot pretend to conclude what's something that belongs to another field: at this high end level of research is more than questionable.

You may take-such as you told me to make my own opinion from the news- in the same way the researches you search, with a critical spirit.

In my opinion, the least I can say here, is that we have allover around us, services and (free, yes even free) organizations, that are abundantly educating how to eat well with a very limited budget, that do not need such high end researches, one sided, and overall, attacking one individual, when the issue is so chronic in this country.

It has nothing to do-again, with politics, but only with the politics that never existed before to do something about the issue, even if it's not perfect, but can be improved, of course.
