I just discovered that the school my toddler goes to has a policy where they have a meeting with you if your kid gets there late 3 times.

I'm fine with something like 5, but 3!!!!
Jesus fucking christ, she's 4!

The amount of effort I have to put to awake, bathe, dress and feed this kid is unholy, and the time it takes can fluctuate.

I think its good to learn on a young age that being late is wrong. And its easier to have a schoolwide policy then depending on age.

@Codex404 I agree, it also probably wreaks havoc on the class when a kid gets late.

I'm just a little butthurt by the first late we got being that it was costume day, and there was some confusion between me and my wife of which day was it, so I had to go back and put her costume in, and of course sign that thing like an idiot.

I would have expected some extra tolerance on costume day.

3 for a citation is still too little in my opinion, kids can be chaotic.
