I serve whole milk with lunch because I have it for my own kids, bu tonly one small cup per day. I serve it at lunch because my dck's eat a ton and I want to fill their bottomless pits up before naptime! If they want more than that they have to supply it. Also, when my kids get older and drink 1 or 2% that is what I will serve and parents can supply whole milk.

Because of my own DD we use HOMO in our house (and I actually like it better than 2% anyways) so for me that's not an issue. BUT they get 1 cup in the morning if they have breakfast here and if not then 1 cup during lunch. That's it...
My dcp of the 8mos old send over her own food since she's under 12mos and her bottles of formula. When she's ready for cows milk I will provide her 2 bottles a day....unless the parents want to use soy, rice etc. Mom's a health nut so I wouldn't be surprised.
BASICALLY - you get what I have. You want something different? Supply it. And what I DO provide is for MY house....if your kids needs to drink something on their way home (I don't know why they can't wait 15-20min??) I will fill up YOUR sippy cup from YOUR home with some of MY water. bye-bye

I serve juice with breakfast and all morning, especially in this heat. I serve a cup of milk at lunch and a cup of milk with afternoon snack but it is 2%. If any child needs homo milk the parents have to send it in their cup or bottle daily. I don't have room in my fridge for more than that. I have a lactose intolerant baby and the parents send a litre of his milk at a time because I have an apartment sized fridge.
Do NOT give them milk for the ride home! Are you kidding me?
