So, the USDA has two million dollars to videotape what Texas children are (not) eating for lunch. If intimidation worked to change dietary habits, high school would be a significantly different experience for the student who has poor dietary habits.
Astounding, given the disrepair of much of our educational system, that the government can rub more than two nickles together to make this happen. Who will be minding these films? What will happen to everyone's privacy after they are all posted on the Internet? You have to wonder what human subjects research board dreamed it up. Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy landing. Imagine what else $2M might pay for! Iceberg, anyone?
How would it be if they used those same cameras to tape students performing a play or playing soccer. A little self-esteem goes a lot further than constant nagging or criticism. It's odd that no one seems to know that a simple request to a cafeteria worker could summarize what students leave behind on their trays. Health benefits, anyone?
