Dear preschool,
I'm frustrated that you serve junk to our toddlers every single day. The little Debbie's snacks and pop tarts are convenient and cheap but they are not conducive to healthy kids when eaten daily. I appreciate that you allow me to send my own snack with my kids that they happily eat- but when you tell me today, after 3 years of being in your school that I can no longer send fresh or dried fruit or homemade granola bars and can only send dry cereal I am frustrated! My kids need fuel to keep them going so they aren't crashing when I pick them up and won't eat lunch. Dry cereal will not do this. I'm annoyed that I even have to deal with this in the first place and livid that you clearly do not have my child's health as a priority- they fact that you need a doctor note on file explaining that he recommends a healthy diet for my children is beyond my comprehension! And stop making me feel like the crazy mom- I know you warned dd1s new teacher this year about me- and now she will barely talk to me. I'm not crazy that I want my kids to eat healthy food- the occasional little Debbie's treats is fine- not every day. I don't bother or annoy you with anything else I am as quiet as a mouse. I am not the problem.
Oh yeah, I'm also frustrated that you are the only preschool option for me and I can't even yank my kids out of your antiquated program.
Gaaaaahhhhh
