    We had McDonalds parties/HJ parties when we were young. Im still breathing now. I dont think something thats done once a year is going to harm a child. Its your choice not to let your kids go to the parties but I guess you have to weigh it up between the social aspect and what you believe in?

    I know, I know and like I said, we are not food control freaks but everything about the marketing, packaging and waste associated with it has just left me seething!

    ETA: Tinks, yeah, I’ve got no idea what I meant by “harm my child” either?

    I am so thankful that we have never been invited to a Maccas party. If we were, I would politely decline the invitation.
    I agree with your comments about pollution, waste, marketing, etc.
    We don't eat animals, so that would be my major reason for giving it a miss.
