Why the hell does back-to-school shopping feel like a second rent payment? A $3 notebook here, $5 folder there, $15 backpack, $30 for decent shoes, $10 for crayons, $12 for glue and scissors, $16 for markers — it adds up fast. Then they want three boxes of Kleenex, four rolls of paper towels, and headphones?! For first grade?! I’m out here dropping $100+ just so my kid can sit in a classroom and maybe use half the stuff. It’s ridiculous. School should be free — and that includes the damn supplies. Yes, this is my real child's back to school supply list.
