Halibut Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 When did I put that I would send her with juice and lie. My daughter will be going to school with juice and if anyone asks her she will say it is juice because she cannot drink water. I have told the learning mentor and asked her to pass it on to the head teacher that my daughter will continue to bring juice to school. I do not expect the school to change the rules just for my daughter but merely offer alternatives to parents who cannot give their children pure water to drink. Thanks for the concerns and I do appreciate that you are not getting at me. I would never knowingly undermine my child's school and do try and see the schools point of view and enforce it wherever possible. But I have to say on this one they are wrong especially when they are still promoting that it is ok to bring in chocolate and crisps. The last time I looked the latter two items are not healthy options. My child takes neither of these to school. With respect that's nonsense - there's no such thing as parents who cannot give their children pure water to drink, just parents who choose not to.

You obviously only read what you want to so there is no point in coming on to a thread that is open to discussion. I will say once more my daughter cannot drink water on its own without being sick. Unless you are a doctor and have a cure for this I suggest we move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I just don't like it, I don't find it refreshing at all. I'm not sure why. I guess I don't know why I don't like kidney beans either, I just don't like the taste. Its the same principal really. Not really, without water you die, without kidney beans, well, nothing happens.

If you have notes from a Doctor to confirm that this is the case, send them to the school, end of problem. What's the name of your daughters condition by the way?

saxondale Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I rode across a Pelican crossing on my cycle. It was naughty,i broke a rule/law or whatever you wanna dress it up as. If your boss told you he was bringing in a new rule which required you to sniff his toes on a Friday,would you comply? and your not going to start moaning when you do get caught? of course you are thats your thing.

There is a large difference from and Because the fact that she refuses to drink water is the main problem as I see it. Her medical condition has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone but us. I merely wanted opinions on whether other parents had experienced this or not. Would you like to put all your medical ailments on an open forum???? Thought not.

Halibut Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Why do you have a cure for her? No, just curious, because to be frank I find it unbelievable. I'm guessing it's psychological, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
