Whose job is it to raise your children

“We are not going to solve society’s problems. People have to do that on their own …[I]f you can’t get your kids to eat vegetables, why is it my job?”

From the Cato Institute’s blog McDonald’s CEO on Globalization and Eating Your Vegetables

As the blog post goes on to suggest, McDonald’s may well try to anticipate market demand by including supposedly healthier foods on its menu – which would be, after all, the expected action of a fast food chain that wants to stay in business in a market in which consumers are becoming more health-conscious. But is it really the job of McDonald’s to parent your children?
