cafeteria costs a good idea? President Obama, talking to the AMA, has suggested that kids in American schools could work in their schools' victory gardens, to offset cafeteria budgets - and emulate his wife and the children who maintain the White House victory garden.

What kind of fruits or vegetables would you like your children to grow?

Can kids handle crops like cotton?
 
I don't see where a garden is much different from other class projects; it's a way to make everything from science to geography more interesting and accessible to young students. If the project creates something that is useful to the school, so much the better.
 
Did you see that Obama wants to eliminate Summer Vacation for kids and lengthen the school day including WEEKENDS!... with MORE homework??

"It’s not surprising that Education Secretary Arne Duncan has recommended using funds to lengthen the school day and the school year and even adding weekends to the school calendar."
 
What happened to the Republican mantra of "self sufficiency"? Does it only apply if its a Republican idea?

My kids work in a garden at their school, its really not a bad thing and they're pretty proud of the vegetables they harvested. Not to mention it gives them another source of practical education they can use to become less reliant on government intervention. I thought thats what Republicans wanted.... damn hypocrites
 
It's a good idea, but why this on top of everything else kids are supposed to do these days. Hours and hours of homework, participating in voluteer programs, not of their choosing, Liberal-approved curriculum which involves sex education, and maybe participation at young ages. Homosexual indoctrination, being told bring a Bible to school is illegal, but guns are okay.

Bibles are apparently more lethal than guns. Ten-year-olds learning and using birth control methods then teachers and parents are shocked when their sons and daughters are parents at 15 and 16. How's that working for the betterment of society? Kids having kids.

And they're supposed to tend a Government mandated garden? Wonder what they'll be told to grow. I'm sure it will have to be "green" friendly plants.
 
Do you really think Michelle and the kids traipse around the garden in their $500 sneakers? They'll probably make the good children grow government regulated crops, like marijuana and tobacco.
 
You live on hate, no food and drinks necessary. My kids already have a healthy attitude towards this planet and don't mind gardening, thank you.
