The toy can only contribute to weight gain IF they eat the toy! Ridiculous.

My son Calvin has ask to get a happy meal just to get the toy.Remember it's up to the parents on what they feed their children.If some feel it can contribute to weight a suggestion say no or maybe go to a toy store instead!! :)

Last time I checked, you don't eat the toy.

Parents need to learn how to say NO to their kids. Just because they ask for it, DOES NOT mean you need to give it to them.

Fast food by it self DOES NOT contribute to weight gain. Everybody has different metabolism and body types.

Government needs to stop policing and trying to play the parenting role.
