@hortonlane Oh how things have changed from when I played sports in the 90s 😂 Is this the new norm? Back in my day we got ONE thing from this snack pack, now these kids are getting a full lunch sack of goodies 😂 I don’t mind, but I am curious if it’s going to get bigger as time goes on. What’s the after game snack protocol for you? #millenialparenting #sportsmom ♬ original sound – Chrissy Horton
“Oh how things have changed since I played sports in the 90s,” she captioned the video. “Is this the new mom? Back in my day, we got ONE thing from this snack pack, now these kids are getting a full lunch sack of goodies.”
Turns out Chrissy’s Costco-haul of a snack is nothing compared to some of those who took to the comments to weigh in.
“Wait this is wild, we used to get one juice box and a little Debbie,” one user wrote in the comments.
“In Texas, we would see tons of bags and water bottles monogrammed with last names and #s. Every week!” Shared another.
“Sports mom x3 in Virginia Beach here, that’s EXACTLY how it goes! I don’t make the rules, I just do it too…,” echoed another mom in the trenches.
Several others weighed in with fresh eyes, assuring everyone that it is not ALWAYS like this. But Chrissy’s post still draws attention to an important conversation which is: How much is too much?
Especially when you consider how much money parents are already investing in playing these sports in the first place.
