She had to get used to drinking at eating at the same time - not literally, but you know, at designated times. At home she would eat and then 20 minutes later, she would want a drink. So when they sat her down with snack/lunch/whatever, she would eat the food and leave the drink, then complain about being thirsty later. Eventually, we trained the teachers to remind her to stay put and drink her beverage after she was done with her food, and they trained her to do both in one "sitting."Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05543398960836737257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26528254.post-21545064335096863772008-10-08T12:59:00.000-05:002008-10-08T12:59:00.000-05:00Despite nonsoccermom's lack of recollection, I do ...Despite nonsoccermom's lack of recollection, I do remember our son going through a phase where he did the same thing. But then he grew out of it.<BR/><BR/>Good story, I know.<BR/><BR/>I think (in our case) it was a combination of:<BR/>A) Being on the playground right before pick-up<BR/>B) Teachers letting kids go to the water fountain unattended<BR/>C) My son's complete lack of water fountain skills. He'd get it all over his head, but very little in his mouth.<BR/><BR/>He would drain a couple of cups of water between the time he got home and dinner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26528254.post-8011528664160591432008-10-08T09:27:00.000-05:002008-10-08T09:27:00.000-05:00Yes, I still get that with MDO.

Bear drinks a lot normally so I think they just don't give him as much as he is used to drinking during the day.Someone Being Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08984828094257765105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26528254.post-67458955511281180642008-10-08T09:13:00.000-05:002008-10-08T09:13:00.000-05:00Hmm.
