New York recently put in a bid to ban Happy Meal and Kids Meal toys from fast food chains. They claim that the advertising of the toys is the reason children are so unhealthy. Claims are, that the TV commercials announcing new toys every week, are manipulating children to eat unhealthy. While I do think that the advertising has a lot to do with our children wanting McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, etc... It is the parents decision not to take them, even if our children beg, carry on and scream. Our children do not run the home and therefore cannot make parents decisions for them. Even though it's difficult, parents have to say no and put their foot down when it comes down to it.
