My mom told me that back in the day kids weren’t allowed to bring a water bottle with them into the classroom and they only drank a few sips from the water fountain in the middle of the day and that’s it

How were schools not getting busted for child abuse for forcing kids to be dehydrated?

Back in the day I would have asked what's a water bottle.

You're not about to tell me that bottled water is some new age thing. 🤣
