If she was truly concerned about juvenile obesity, then she should have handed out no candy at all, raisins or non-edible treats for all.
That she specifically picked on overweight children and then chose to give them notes as opposed to the above mentioned alternates speaks to me that she was picking on children and not really showing concern.

I agree. Foir years it was okay to give fruit, homemade cookies or whatever, and such. Now the practice is to use wrapped candy because anything else would be considered unsafe. The candy companies are making a mint out of it.

But there's nothing to stop anyone from giving away other types of wrapped snacks, or even crayons and such. I think this woman put the cart before the horse and totally missed the point.

True? You decide for yourself.
