[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here we go. OP asked a specific question. Pretty sure she and her daughter, over the many years of education they’ve managed together, have realized that bringing lunch to school is an option.

Yes, my kid does this and I work at a school and see the lunch portions. They are very small.

Through the many years of education we’ve managed together, we’ve learned that taking lunch to school is an option. Kid does not select this option, while my other kid does. [/quote]

So why wouldn’t you bring a lunch? Especially if school portions aren’t enough food? [/quote]
NP, but based on my kids I’m guessing that the kid doesn’t leave enough time in the morning to make their lunch and doesn’t want to do it the night before. My kids don’t particularly love school lunch but they like making a lunch even less, and I’m not packing a lunch for a 12 year old so it’s on them to do it. [/quote]
You’d rather they are the crap  school lunch than make them a lunch because they’re 12? 
My kid is 11 and I make her lunch. I’m making mine for work anyway so no extra work to make hers. A lot of this time I make it at the same time as dinner the night before

Yes, they are 12, an age where they need to learn to do low stakes things for themselves. No one is starving, they don’t like the school lunch they are welcome to make one and bring it. [/quote]

Way to go lazy parent! Now your kid can eat processed gross food because you refuse to help them out with a packed lunch. Horrible parenting.[/quote]
You can yell into the ether about it being horrible parenting but that doesn’t make it so. You’re teaching your 12 year old to be lazy and spoiled if you’re continuing to pack their lunch for them like they are in Kindergarten.  [/quote]
