(2002-11-21) — On the heels of yesterday’s lawsuit claiming that McDonald’s food makes kids fat, lawyers have filed a class action in federal court in Manhattan on behalf of parents claiming McDonald’s destroys their ability to discipline their children or monitor their behavior and whereabouts.
“Ronald McDonald holds sway over the minds of parents like Saddam Hussein controls the Iraqi people,” according to the 234-page filing. “Parents involuntarily transport their children to McDonald’s and give them money to buy Happy Meals. These innocent Moms and Dads often have no idea that their children have gone with friends to Mickey D’s. They are helpless, pitiful victims of McDonald’s nefarious mind-control recipe.”
The lawsuit seeks punitive damages of one dollar for every customer McDonald’s has served.
