Comments: I don't think they need lessons as such, as parents have the right to put whatever they want in their children's packed lunches, but if there are some parents who think that they aren't putting the right things in and want to change then, yeah, they should have something like that.

shrbarto1 voted for Other (please explain) on Sunday 5 February 2012

Comments: Yes - some of my friends have unhealthy food everyday (e.g. chocolate, percy pigs, crisps). No - other friends have really healthy food (e.g. hommous and lettuce sandwich, berocca to drink, 5 a day ) . I think the mums who give their children unhealthy food should be given lessons on how to feed their children - after all, it's not fair on the children. I have recently realised that the story line on coronation street is linked to this inquiry " Do you think that parents should be given lunchbox lessons?"
