[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all I don’t think water bottles in school is an urgent thing. I didn’t have it and I was fine. It’s a recent trend. The mom is insisting on it, if she really wants to encourage the daughter to do it then yes, get her the fancy water bottle. But don’t be surprised if she still doesn’t even use it that much, or loses it. There’s not a lot of time to go to the bathroom. She’s not dying of thirst. Just make sure she drinks a lot at home. In other countries there’s not this obsession with hydration like in the us. Those kids are just fine. [/quote] A lot of schools require it. It’s annoying how many activities tell you to bring a water bottle. Something I always forgot. When my daughter was 8 and taking a basketball skills class for only 1 hour! They had a water break. The kids would bring their bottles out and I’d point to the water fountain. She didn’t care where the water came from. Now capitalism has taken over and evil marketing departments preying on preteens telling them what they need. [/quote]
