Tell them you love them and that you can’t wait to hear about how everything went. Then you kiss them goodbye and head to work / home. Walk them to their classrooms and introduce them and yourself to the teacher, then wait in the parking lot until school starts. You wait with them until the last minute and wave to them as they leave, then shed a few tears because you are sad you will miss so much of their day. Question 2 You find out that your kid is getting picked on by another kid in school, you: Immediately call the school principal and demand a meeting. Call a family meeting, and explain that kids who pick on other kids usually have their own issues and that they should forgive and forget.

Spend the night giving lessons in self defense. Question 3 Your kid doesn’t want to eat the dinner you prepared them, you: Tell them that they have to sit at the dinner table until they consume every last bite. Explain that you know they are normally good eaters, and try to figure out if something is bothering them. Tell them they are welcome to eat what is there, or they can feel free to make something themselves. Invite them to help you make something else that they will enjoy. Make them something you know they will like and call it a draw. Question 4 Your child really wants to go to summer camp, but you can’t afford it, you: Take on a second job so you can afford to send them.

Question 5 Your kid is playing a sport, and the coach barely lets them play in the games, you: Go directly to the coach and demand that your child play as much as possible.

Explain that they need to practice harder to prove themselves to the coach. Practice with them every day after school to make sure they are good enough to play more. Explain that this is nothing to be ashamed of, and when the coach feels they are ready he will let them play. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Void where prohibited.
