My 2 younger dds are 11 and nearly 7. They are fussy-ish eaters especially the 11 year old.
However I have always insisted on school dinners because:
-I can't face making packed lunches day in day out for years on end
-I think it's good for fussy eaters in the long run to be exposed to different types of food rather than a limited choice in their lunch box
The school has recently changed their supplier to one where the food is better quality and cooked fresh. They didn't mind (too much) the old food, however they really don't like the new food.
There is a fairly low take up on school meals at the school, not for financial reasons but there seem to be a lot of fussy eaters who don't like the school food.
So am I being mean on insisting on school lunches? My thinking is - there is a perfectly fine, freshly cooked meal available, I don't see the need to make a packed lunch. I also cook in the evening.
AIBU?
