MOST parents will be familiar with the over the top lunchboxes more and more mums are sending their kids to school with, scrambling to make sure their little one’s is the best in class.
However one mum has admitted that she has done away with fancy packed lunches and makes her son a ‘boring’ one instead.Aussie mum-of-two, Sarah, was sick of people posting snaps of their carefully curated lunch boxes filled with nothing but healthy snacks, so she decided to share her own take.Sarah said that while she’d love to be a little more adventurous with her son’s lunchboxes, it would be a waste of her time.
Captioning her snap which was posted on Facebook, she wrote: "Yes, I would love to offer my child a smorgasbord of healthy goodies, but I have a fussy eater who prefers simple boring lunches, I pick my battles.” Fellow mums were quick to applaud the woman’s honesty, admitting that they were a long way off creating bento boxes themselves.
Commenting on the post, one wrote: "My son will only have a Vegemite sandwich. There is nothing wrong with simple.”
