My family thinks there should be toys in the happy meal because they can force us to eat if we want it.They also think the goverment shouldn’t decide because the goverment isn’t giving us a choice.

me and my partner have disided not to ban toys in happy meals. alana: and i think that the government is trying to monitior us way to much . they shouldnt ban toys they should just leave it to the parents whether to give it to there kds or not for peet sakes thoughs toys are fun dont ban them but i still think they should make them mare heathier. sam: i think they should ban them becouse little kids like to play with them and they would be sad without them and without the meal will be an sad meal not a happy meal but they should make them mare heathier.

I think it is horabile if they took the toys away from the chilndren because the children want something to play with when they go to McDonalds unstead of eating at Mcdonalds and not get a toy and just eat a burger and frise at Mcdonalds.

MY family thinks that they shouldn’t take the toys away.THE little kids love the toys in the happy meal.my famliy also thinks the goverment should not let little kids have heathly food.
March 15th, 2011 at 7:41 am
My famliy and I dissagree that the goverment can’t just take the toys from happymeals beacause this is not there job to decide weather kids can get a toy in a happymeal or not. My family and I also feel Mad at the goverment beacause that they aer taking to much control of America. So my family and I don’t like that that goverment is taking the toys away.
