School lunches/it’s never enough
No matter what I send it is never enough. I have two in school, jk and sk. My girl eats fantastic. Loves everything and is easy to please but my boy, oh my god is he ever picky. Like any kid, he loves the treat aspects of lunch. He won’t eat most meats, hates cheese. He prefers hot food. I always send the main part of the lunch he gets left overs from dinner that get heated and put into his canister. Then he gets a fruit item (apple, banana, pear, grapes ect) vegetable item (usually peppers or cucumbers) a yogurt, gold fish and two snacks (bear paws, individual cookie pouches, rice crispies, chocolate granola bars, gummies ect) and every week the teacher complains it’s not enough. I understand kids are growing and eat a lot but I try my absolute best. Right now I’m tight financially and I’m going to admit that the snacks are expensive to keep up on. I make meals, i provide my kids with more then enough to eat but I cannot be throwing down all the money on cookies, chocolate granola bars and junk.. cuz that’s what they want sent. At home they eat their meals which always contain protein, carbs and vegetables then they get a treat. I don’t load them up on crappy food but obviously if they see the opportunity to fight it they will. Which they probably complain about their lunches because they want the treats not the main portion, not the fruit and vegetables they want the sugar and I refuse to only feed them that. Again, I get it but seriously every week they’re complaining about it and idk what to do anymore.
