My dd1 is currently in public K and my dd2 is in a Waldorf preschool. For preschool the lunches are supposed to be very healthy, natural, low sugar, no junk etc. But since dd1 started public K I have been falling off the wagon. I'm...

I agree with the op's. It seems like some kind of change needs to happen. My dd2 did this in preschool/childcare.  Every day as we got closer to the school her anxiety would build and her crying would escalate. By the time we were...
