Which is the best rebuttal to the following counter-argument? Replacing the contents of school vending machines with
more healthful choices is a bad idea because it limits
students' choices, is more costly, and is one step closer to
absolute control over students' personal lives.
O A. Students often do not make the best choices about what is best
for them nutritionally, so schools have the right to fulfill that role,
no matter the cost.
O B. Poor food choices have contributed to an epidemic of preventable
diseases in our population, so schools must take steps to address
it
O C. School personnel are stand-ins for parents when their children are
at school, so schools have a responsibility to do what parents
think is best for them nutritionally,
OD. It's the responsibility of the government to ensure that children are
provided with healthy food choices; to do otherwise is to abandon
this responsibility

D. It's the responsibility of the government to ensure that children are

provided with healthy food choices; to do otherwise is to abandon

this responsibility
