| Description | The aim of this studies was to find out how often families with young children buy milk and whether the parents are interested in school offer of milk. One hundred and three parents of the children attending the junior level of the primary school in Le- tovice, The Czech Republic, were taking part in the research. The research was taken in question-forms. The whole form included 13 questions, however the thesis supplies answers to only some of them. It was found out that prevalent majority of the families of the focused group of pupils lives in the city. The questioned families had mostly four members: a mother, a father and two children. To the question how often they buy milk, most families answered “seldom”. It is mostly families of four who buy milk on a daily basis (this was stated by as much as 10% of questioned families of four members). Yoghurts are bought by families with four members mostly a few times a week (32% of que- stioned families of four answered so) or daily (15.5% of questioned families of four answered so). To the question ascertaining the parents’ interest, as the case may be, in supplying milk and dairy products for a consideration to the children directly at school, 78 parents answered in the affirmative, which is 75.7% of respondents. It means that the parents are interested in state-aided school milk. |
