    That’s really weird. Also are you allowed to just go eat with your children at school or you need some kind of special forms and access? They can’t just let a bunch of adults into the school randomly.

      Wild notion here for most USAnites. In almost all of the world, the parents can indeed just walk into the school and see what is up with their kids, part of the school’s job is to know who are the parents to which kids. It’s part of institutional transparency and parental rights. My nephew’s schools (admittedly, in Europe) allows a family lunch day a week, when parents can enter the cafeteria and eat with their kids unannounced or simply watch what they are being served.

      I had to go into the office and check in each time. They have it on file who my kids are. Only parents were allowed. So, you could not walk in off the street, having no kids at the school, and eat lunch.

      I did this at 3 different schools in 2 different states.
