While I did not actually say it, the issue of childhood obesity is one of the reasons that my “school nurse hat” had me not recommending using candy as a treat. Thank you for making the point much more explicitly than I did. I completely agree and also do not think food of any type should be used as reward.

Just something to think about! I think a very important reason has been overlooked. I do not feel it is appropriate for children to receive food as a reward.
