Don't tell me they "learn a lot" and "develop bonds". It's a leveling up of hierarchy in the parents' social status. You are paying to be friends with other parents who happen to have kids playing the same sport. Not every person who enrolls their child in travel ball is seeking to be a social climber, but the literal purpose of travel ball has always been to separate the haves from the have-nots. It's not good for kids. It's just offering a different locale for moms to drink their latte and wine away from home each weekend.
First of all, that's a lunchbox full of food-like substances, not food (save for the banana).
Second of all, your job as a parent is to feed your child. If you are complaining about the cost of packing them a lunch for school, that's a you problem. Even if it means applying for free-and-reduced lunch, go for it. I guess that's why it's there (even if I don't agree with that either).
But complaining that you have to "feed your children" is another level of terrible parenting.
There are two particular conspiracy theories going around out there right now. Both prove exactly how susceptible the wine moms are...You know, the ones who also have their kids in travel sports and then they also don't understand how to pack a school lunch.
I feel like I should draw some Venn diagrams at this point. All I'd really be drawing is one big circle though.
The women who think Patrick Clancy killed his kids are the same ones who think that Tyler Robinson is innocent.
The women who believe Lindsay Clancy is innocent is the same group of Candace Owens fans who believe Charlie Kirk was killed by his friends/Israel.
The women who think Lindsay Clancy was failed by the system and is a victim also think that Candace Owens is actually investigating something and Erika Kirk is the villain.
See, it can be stated so many different ways!
These women also believe youth travel sports "benefit the entire family" and also complain about buying school supplies and paying for the cost of packing school lunches.
Did I forget anything??? What do you think?
