WE ALL know healthy eating is important, but this is perhaps taking things a little too far.
A controversy has played itself out online, after a woman demanded damages because a babysitter had the temerity to feed her kids chicken nuggets.
The child-minder posted about the incident when she was minding the "really well behaved" 9- and 7-year olds.
Because they had been so good she wanted to give them a treat, and they specifically asked for McDonald's Chicken Nugget Happy Meals which the sitter obligingly provided.
However, when the mother returned home to find her kids chowing down on the fast food she was outraged.
"She literally ripped the nuggets out of their hands," the babysitter claimed, adding that she had not been informed that the family were vegetarians.
"She kicked me out without paying me and then later texted me saying that I need to pay her $300 for each kid for the emotional damage I have caused them," the babysitter wrote on Reddit.
However, she wasn't fazed by threats of court action, saying her dad and older brother were both lawyers so "I know I can have help dealing with it if she does try to take things to court".
