Parents' Assignment: Nutritious School Lunches

With the new school year just around the corner, Moms and Dads will once again begin packing lunches. School lunches need to be not only edible, but nutritious - not always an easy task. For younger kids, getting them to eat anything, let alone anything actually good for them, can be a challenge. For kids in middle and high school, parents need to worry about the coolness factor - what's considered socially acceptable for a teenager to consume in the presence of friends, peers, and, most importantly, the opposite sex. Learn more about packing a good, nutritious school lunch from the Post-Gazette.com.
