These two links show two total different sides of
one story and that is that one policy fits all, we see this today all the time.
Policy that were built to fit everyone and affect everyone but not
always in the best way. The “Healthy Hunger-Free kids Act of 2010” has
impacted every kind of school not matter if you are in high school or
just starting out in kindergarten.
This act was passed in 2010 but I’m now starting to notice the effects, my team
mates and friends have started to bring home lunches because the food offered
at school is not enough to fill them.
Now there are people who are fat, but with this policy those people who are
working out for 1-3 hours a day need a lot of calories. The “We are hungry”
video says we need “2000-5000 calories” if you’re an active student. For some
people lunch at school is there only meal a day, “750-850 calories” are not
enough. Being in high school upperclassmen can leave campus here, this
means that some of my class mates are running to fast food joints everyday just
to get a meal that feeds them.
The other video that I have is the one that Mrs. Obama filmed to tell us about
this policy. I feel like this video was mostly propaganda on a policy that is
making me starve if I don’t bring my own home lunch. She says that there will
be new health food. I feel like all I got was the same canned food and a lot
less protein.
With that a one policy fits all standard
just doesn’t work, mostly because of the true fact that no two people are in
the same exact boat on food.
