Parents a question about kids school lunches (1 Viewer)

[belljr]

Just trying to get a ffa pulse, as I may be out of touch. My daughter is in 4th grade and we still pack lunch.

have you ever had a need to pack a real fork in your kids lunch?

 

[sublimeone]

I thought this was going to be one of those threads with pictures of absurd school lunches

 

[Parrothead]

I thought this was going to be about peanuts.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Fork no.

 

[Parrothead]

fork and steak knife - tools to enjoy a proper lunch

 

[sbonomo]

i am so glad i don't have kids.

 

[sublimeone]

a plastic fork won't work?

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

You can't cut your forearms nearly as well with a plastic fork.

 

[jonessed]

No. It would just get lost or thrown away.

 

[ChiefD]

Yeah, we pack forks, spoons, whatever they need. We usually send them to school with the extra ones we've seemed to accumulate over the years. If they lose one, no big deal.

Why wouldn't they just use a fork in the lunch room and return it?

What kind of foods are you sending or considering sending that would require a metal fork?

 

[cstu]

We use these.

When I say real I mean metal

Why does it matter? If I didn't have any plastic ones I'd give a metal one.

 

[Scoresman]

When I say real I mean metal

Are you packing t-bone steaks for your kid's lunch?

 

[Frostillicus]

People ask some weird questions around here.

i never had the need to pack one and I would fear the potential stabbing factor

 

[Limp Ditka]

If your children are psychopaths then that's probably a wise decision.

Although I do send my daughter to school with steak, already cut up though.

Hopefully he doesn't get into too much trouble with unintentional winks.

 

[trogg78]

No, my kids pack their own metal forks.

 

[chauncey]

We usually just send our kids to school with chopsticks. :johnnyc:

have you ever had a need to pack a real fork in your kids lunch?

We pack a plastic spoon so my son can eat his yogurt or if we pack soup or some other hot food. I would never send silverware with my kids.

 

[weebs]

If my parents ever sent me to school with a metal fork I would have thrown it away to spite them

 

[nirad3]

Any way to "un-blackdot" this?
