[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 68868, member: 3704"] I guess I'm showing my age here, but we didn't use backpacks when I was in school. We just piled the books and notebook up in a stack and carried them on. Of course, we didn't have to have a notebook for every class like my kids have had to do every year. Sometimes I think the teachers get kickbacks from the school supply companies. Both easy child and difficult child had scary backpacks. I'm not sure this problem is reserved for difficult children. It's really amazing the debris and discarded items that end up in there. An anthropologist in the future would have a field day with the typical school kid's backpack [img]:smile:[/img] OBTW the problem extends to lockers at school. I give it one more month before difficult child will start complaining about not being able to close his locker at school. You don't want to know the big jumbled mess that thing is. According to the teachers I have spoken with at his high school - this is more typical than I ever would have imagined... [/QUOTE]
