T- While many people blame parents, food manufacturers and the education system, poor nutrition and rising obesity rates among primary school children are the result of poor economic conditions which make eating right and getting enough exercise inaccessible most of the time. Many people blame parents for poor nutrition and rising obesity rates in children, but parents often cannot afford to buy nutritious food and are too busy to make sure their children get enough exercise. When asked who is to blame for rising obesity in school-age children, Lorri Barstow, a registered nurse, said in a March 29, 2014 interview, “It's mostly the parents' fault.” Many feel the same way about Mrs. Barstow, but when asked if her children ate lunches provided by the school canteen and if she considered these meals healthy, she replied: "Yes, they received lunches at school, which everyone had copious amounts of carbohydrates, often processed foods, are unhealthy. Mrs. Barstow herself, as a mother, blamed her parents, yet one of her children became severely overweight during middle school, as so many other working mothers were too busy trying to earn enough money to pay rent and keep up with bills to be able to make sure her children ate well and exercised. In today's world, the stay-at-home mom doesn't exist. Raising a family is so challenging that in most families, both parents work as much as possible to survive. If rent, gas, and medical bills hadn't risen to the level they are today, some parents would still be able to stay at home and make sure their children are cared for. their children eat properly and exercise. Unfortunately this is not the case. Ultimately, the economic conditions in which the prices of everything have risen while wages... half the paper... arise from the fact that there are only enough funds to teach children to read and write. It may seem wrong that schools often make deals with producers to sell their products in the fields, but without the money these contracts bring, programs like art and music that help inspire children would have to be cut. Public schools are doing everything they can to ensure that public education provides knowledge and tools for future generations and the opportunity to succeed academically, and that's what school is for. If schools had sufficient funding, they would be able to offer nutritious foods and provide education without contracts. Unfortunately this is not the case. More and more money is taken out of school budgets every year. Negative economic conditions are the reason schools have so much difficulty getting ahead that they are forced to sell junk food.
