Mary, I know what a battle this is. You don't want to make such a huge
production out of food, and your kids rebel. Everyone else's kids eat
cr-p, so why can't we? is what I basically hear. It is a compromise. I
believe we as parents can do good. I can't even get my kids on low carb,
but we _can_ restrict sweets (we have a one sweet a day rule).
Everything else has been tried and it's so very, very hard that I don't
think it's worth the heartache and the bother, at least in our family.
