"It was pretty traumatic and humiliating," said Erica Lukes, whose 11-year-old daughter had her cafeteria lunch taken from her as she stood in line Tuesday at Uintah Elementary School, 1571 E. 1300 South.
Lukes said as far as she knew, she was all paid up. "I think it’s despicable," she said. "These are young children that shouldn’t be punished or humiliated for something the parents obviously need to clear up."

Unreal.POS.
Gee..maybe their deadbeat parents should pay the bill then. If thats the worst thing that happens to them in their life then they're doing ok.
Well at least in Wicomico County they give them a govt cheese sandwich!
While it does sound a bit harsh, this must continue if we are to show any real progress towards making personal responsibility the norm again.
7:41-According to the linked article the children were given milk and fruit.
Thought the were paid up, sure they did. Like how people mysteriously never get a bill until they are turned into collection.
Any way you slice it this is dead wrong. I am sick and tired of adults treating children badly for no good reason. This is nothing more than humiliation and shame put on children by uncaring adults that have no compasion whatsoever. There is and was a better way to handle the situation.
If I was one of those kids I'd stuff it down before they could take it from me.
The kids should not be humiliated in front of other children, do something with the parents...not children that are actually victim's in this mess.
FOOD FIGHT!!!!
