should feeding kids processed food be considered child abuse?

[blu]

So to summarize:

Blu believes drugs should be legal and fast food should be illegal?

Good grief.

hello simple minded one,

drugs should be legal for people either 18+ or 21+ (probably 21+). not only, "fast food", but all processed food should be illegal to serve kids. if you want to eat that crap after your are an adult than be my guest.

What else do you feel should be illegal for others to allow their children to do? Riding bicycles is dangerous. Riding horses, dangerous. Boy Scouts? Can be dangerous............


Who put you in charge...............

deflection? and none of those provably cause cancer

No, just traumatic head injury, motor vehicle accidents, broken bones, blood loss, and possibly even hangnails.

So do you want to take my kiddos' scooters away or not? Should I be arrested if I allow them to climb the trees in the backyard?

Food causes cancer!!!

Oh NOES!!!

Breathing causes cancer. Viruses cause cancer. Carpet, paint and furniture contain carcinogenic chemicals. I guess all kids should just live in a bubble until the age of 18.

Deflection? No. I just see no difference between allowing an adult to choose to smoke pot, and and allowing an adult to choose to allow their child to eat a Happy Meal.

Both are potentially dangerous activities if done in copious amounts, and both are choices made by adults.

not in all cases and not if safety precautions are taken, unlike heavily processed foods

nope. not all paint does, furntiure doesnt (?), and you don't have to worry about breathing as much if you use air purifiers

ummm, one affects the child and the other doesn't... its a pretty big difference

Wait....so you're claiming processed food causes cancer in ALL cases?

Yes, we all have cancer now.

Tell that to the charred steak.

As for the OP: No.

The last thing we need is more Nanny State interference in our personal decisions. Fast or processed food in moderation isn't harmful.

So you're claiming that drug use by adults NEVER affects children?

Dayum, I had no idea! I'd better quit working hard, taking care of myself and trying to save for the future and start working on that bucket list.

The bucket will give you cancer too.

There's no hope.

We must outlaw the bucket. It's for the children, you understand.
