[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why the 45 minute soccer game HAS to have a snack schedule for parents to haul to the field. It's ridiculous![/quote]

This drives me completely crazy.  And every week the snacks get bigger.  The parents who bring them think they are so gracious and kind to bring vast quantities of snacks, and enough for all the siblings.  I have multiple kids who all play a sport.  I'm about to simply give up on feeding my kids on Saturday's because they are GIVEN BY OTHER PEOPLE so much food and sugar (e.g. gatorade) at games.

YES.  I don't know where this started.  I have given up on trying to limit snacks because my kids have so many snack times built into their schedules.  During the week at school they eat lunch very early and then have an afternoon snack.  On weekends they have post-game snacks and birthday parties and whatever else.  I can't be mad at them for expecting food every couple of hours, it's what happens every other day whether I want it to or not.[/quote]
