[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's 10, almost 11, and in 5th grade. Yes we discussed what to buy and how much it'd cost, and how the $20 was for lunch and souvenir. Instead he bought junk - burger and hot dog and soda. Another I'm still mad... [/quote] OP, $20.00 is not enough to purchase lunch, a drink AND a souvenir. It just is not. And the souvenier is would purchase would be actual junk, a $5.00 eraser or trinket that would end up in the trash. Maybe a postcard. But that is about it. Be grateful he bought food instead of wasting the money on cheap trinkets. Also, a burger and hot dog do not sound excessive for a boy on the threshold of puberty. If you are flipping out about this minor lunch how the heck are you going to handle $300.00/week grocery bills trying to feed a growing teen boy?[/quote] +1. I'd rather my kid bought food (even overpriced crap) than a crummy cheap souvenir! [/quote]
