[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remind once then just have them live eight he consequences. My kid went out to the bus without a hat and gloves once. Doesn't forget now. If they don't hang up their towel, they don't get a clean towel. My kid likes home lunch, I'm not washing lunch boxes in the am. So if she doesn't take it out and bring to sink, she's buying lunch at school. 
9 is a great age to have these tasks mostly their responsibility with a few reminders. [/quote]

Yes, I knowingly let him leave without a lunch once last year. School (public) called me and demanded I come drop it off. Teacher mentioned it at conference time too. [/quote]

Did your kid have money for lunch or did you expect him to go hungry?  The latter isn't ok and you should have been called.  [/quote]

There isn’t hot lunch but he gets lunch milk and there seem to always be emergency food. Like pretzels, bread and spreads, fruit. IMO a kid would be fine having an apple and a bag of pretzels with milk as lunch for one day! They were also required to bring a daily snack and water bottle, so it’s not like he would have been dehydrated or faint with hunger. [/quote]
