One thing I have found is that schools are generally overstretching their jurisdiction. My son's school is actively attempting to control what types of lunches the kids bring, and they are truly overzealous about "junkfood."
Now, we tend to be food 'purists' so we strictly limit the amount of junk our son is allowed anyway.
But, I frankly think that it really is not the school's business to stick its nose into kid's lunchbags.
And that is just one example..


So, sadly, the situation in relation to blogging does not come as any surprise to me.
