[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really hate making school lunches. I wish in school options were better. [/quote] Kid can make their own lunch [/quote] Same unless your kids are very young. I kind of supported through elementary school but by middle school they were fully independent. We would coordinate so they could have leftovers in their keep warm container or I’d get groceries for a salad, but deciding what to eat and packing it was definitely on them.[/quote] My hs kids don’t have time. [/quote] Yes they do. Youre either an enabler or have poor time management skills.[/quote] How do your kids have time with sports/activities and homework? No, I encourage activities and expect good grades.[/quote] DP. DD did six activities, was president of two clubs at the same time and secretary of a third, and did dual enrollment where she had straight As in both her MCPS and MC courses. DS did four activities, two sports, two internships (for about six months concurrently) and earned straight As. He also earned five 5s and 1 4 on AP exams and was featured in an art gallery. They packed their own lunches because they multi-tasked that kind of low thought activity. They also typically did their own laundry. [/quote] Well you are obviously a highly perfect person who has raised the most perfect children. Because you have achieved this level of perfection, you may ascend to the astral plane and leave us highly flawed mortals with highly flawed children here to share empathy and recipes in discussing the endless monotony of preparing school lunches for our children who, while flawed and inefficient beings, nonetheless must eat.
