The story of a family mother went viral when she recounted how her son’s kindergarten teacher forbade him to eat the snack she prepared, arguing that it was unhealthy, sparking an intense debate on social networks.

In a case that has gone viral and generated divided opinions on social media, a mother decided to make her protest voice heard on TikTok. Her outrage arose following her youngest son was denied opening her lunch box in kindergarten. It all happened when the teacher, seeing a slice of cake inside, argued that it was unhealthy and recommended avoiding its consumption. This incident has caused quite a stir and has reopened the debate in the virtual community regarding what is considered healthy or not in children’s snacks.

The story is told by Ashley Griffiths, a young mother from Queensland, Australia. She told her more than 330,000 followers of hers on TikTok regarding the situation in great detail. “Yesterday, I sent my son off to school with a small, individually wrapped piece of cake. He came back without eating, which is very surprising because he is going through a growth spurt and eating everything right now,” the video begins.

According to ‘New York Post’, Ashley later said that her little boy’s luncheon meat was very well balanced with all kinds of foods ideal for his nutrition. Also, she explained why she sent him a slice of cake.

His mother allowed him to eat the cake

“I know some people call them ‘treats’ or ‘sometimes eaten’ or whatever. We just call it food in this house. We don’t place a moral value on food.” As far as I’m concerned, if my son has eaten his ham and his cheese and his yogurt and his fruit and his sandwich, he can have the damn cake if he’s hungry,” he maintained.

In this sense, the obfuscated mother asked her followers what they thought regarding it and if it was necessary to file a formal complaint with the school for this deprivation of the decision on her little one.

“My kids didn’t eat all day because apparently their lunch box wasn’t healthy. She had twig and fruit sticks and a white bread sandwich,” “I made my daughter fruit bars that I made and her school labeled them unhealthy. “The next day I sent them the list of ingredients,” some users pointed out in the comments.
