Happy to be told otherwise. Child is in year 3. Frequently comes out pale, lethargic and today with stomach cramps. Transpires his full water bottle was still in his backpack so hadn't drank all day again (8.45 - 3.15) and he doesn't have a drink at lunch time either. He's an introvert who struggles with anxiety at times if that makes any difference.
Yes I have tried to explain to him the importance of staying hydrated and tell him he should try really hard to remember. I emailed the teacher last year and she said she'll try and remember to remind him (there are 23 kids in the class and one TA so I know they have their hands full).
Just frustrated and not sure if I'm being unreasonable?
YABU - your child is 7 or 8 and fully responsible for taking his water bottle out each day and remembering to drink.
YANBU - the teacher/TA should be helping more.

AIBU?
To think it's primary school teacher's responsibility to ensure children drink during the day?
