[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3146902, member: 29706"] And then you wondered why you wore that something to play with down to a little nub later in life? But I agree that soda is not the greatest thing in the world but at what point in time does the state have a right to over rule the choice of a parent? I grew up with KoolAid and if I was lucky an orange Hi-C. No Soda, and I don't drink a ton of soda today. Mostly tea. And honestly I am not big on carbonation anyway. My weight issues do not stem from drinking most of my calories at all. The one thing that I see often is when a parent forces a kid to eat, "just another bite." If your stomach should be the size of your palm then how is a two year old supposed to finish a cheeseburger and fries? Grew up with worse than that, mother would fix a plate for her boyfriend and then the exact same size serving for me at ten years old. Had to eat it all or I was punished.... Looking back I don't have to wonder why I had weight issues. Still they are on a path to just install control chips in the brain or lock everyone in a padded room and throw away the key when they try to control how kids are raised. Maybe Cali can just go make all kids a ward of the state and build great big group homes and raise up all the perfect little rejects just how they want them. [/QUOTE]
