[QUOTE="Shari, post: 249133, member: 1848"] I am by no means rich. I had even less when difficult child 1 was younger. But we always had money for groceries and lunch. However, difficult child 1 played up the poor boy routine ad nauseum, and it made me so angry. I got letters like this (he wouldn't tell me when he needed lunch money and that was before easy access to lunch accounts to check them so sometimes he didn't HAVE any money in his account). But I would send $30 at a time to school for lunch, he would eat it or loan it to buddies in 3 or 4 days, then be out of money for days on end, after which he'd beg, borrow, and steal to eat. I'd just point out the routine, ask them for suggestions as to how I might correct this behavior, and keep my response to print, sign, and mail again when the next "you need to feed your child" note would show up.
