In the Omega-3 thread, Cecilia mentioned how processed food, etc. can affect behavior. That got me thinking about the amount of terrible stuff the kids get in school. I've tasted the chicken nuggets at school and only swallowed it because my son gave me a bite to try. Then they get a snack that must be prepackaged (parents take turns bringing) so it usually something processed with preservatives and sugar. So if that is affecting my son's behavior (and we are really having behavior problems since school started) then how do I handle that without being "that mom" and making my kid stand out? I will definitely start do more sack lunches but I'm not sure how to handle the processed snack issue.
