            <p>Haha, my boys don't take much chicken too, bcos one of them is allergic to eggs ( n therefore avoids same group of products) n also bcos I read that the hormones in chicken causes early puberty in girls and 'man-boobs' for boys :yikes: <br /><br /><br />Both my boys eat every 2 hours but are very underweight.. DS1 is only 19kg and < 120cm.. still the shortest boy in class!! How often does the school check their weight etc? once a year? <br /></p><blockquote><b>janet_lee88:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black">This problem won't end bcos there are people who think that dropping off their kids is just a matter of seconds.</blockquote></blockquote> I honestly think this is the root cause.. everyone thinks that it doesn't take much time, but it causes inconvenience to others.. we usually park at block 4's carpark n walk over.. to save ourselves the frustration from the traffic issue.. no point getting pissed after a long day at work..<p></p>
