Re: Child Benefit and School Meals
I think they should bring back the uniform grant. You used to get vouchers that you could only use in certain shops to buy the uniforms. You got it at the start of every new school year. Now you only get it when your child starts secondary school.

If he was born today, that poor child would have been classed as Morbidly Obese At one time, they would have said " oh that baby is a healthy weight " not any more lol, can't get anything right us parents any more

Re: Child Benefit and School Meals
In the mid 60s you had to visit the clinic every week to have your baby weighed.
The mothers with plump babies who gained most, looked with pity on those who had 'slim' babies.
Times and standards change = the experts are forever moving the goalposts
Trust to your maternal instincts - you instinctively know what is right for your baby
