I have a big problem with the fact that you feed your children McDonald's on a regular basis. If you'd stayed home and cooked a healthy meal you never would have had this problem. While you're worried about the negative messages your son may or may not be picking up from CNN, you're sending the message that eating unhealthy food is really fun and a great family activity. I guarantee that will affect him adversely in life.

I also agree with the person who said that it's YOUR responsibility to decide what your kids watch, not a restaurant's. I personally think if kids are old enough to pay attention to news they're old enough to talk about the topics, but if you don't, that's okay! You're the parent. Actually, I think it's your responsibility to watch, read, or listen to ANY media your child is consuming.
