I wish you the best of luck - not cynically. Especially when your kid can buy their own lunch at school (even if you packed one).

In my school district, they will NOT stop a kid from eating what they want to eat. Personally, I don't argue with that. They need to consume something so better it be something that they'll actually eat than nothing (which happens, trust me)

The best we can do is model good habits and provide a solid foundation.

I remember in high school I had a stint of having crouton salads for lunch. That’s exactly as it sounds.
