Feb 10, 2020 by apost team

This mother's son in Albuquerque, New Mexico, decided to have his mother pack not only his lunch, but one for a fellow classmate. After talking with her son about why he would make such a request, the mom took to social media to share their conversation.

Josette Duran, who lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is one such mother. She packs two lunches every day for her household. However, she only has one son, Dylan. So why does she go through the trouble of packing two lunches for one kid?

Dylan was taking lunch for himself and for a friend. When Josette figured out what he was doing, she posted the conversation she had with her son on Social Media.

The mother posted that Dylan had asked her to make two lunches one day. Josette then asked him if he wasn’t getting full from his first lunch. Dylan responded that yes, he was getting full, but that the second lunch was actually for another kid. He told his mother that the young boy only brought a fruit cup for lunch every single day. He didn’t think he had enough cash to buy lunch at the school, either.

Josette ended up learning just what was going on with the little boy and his family. She said that the truth hit close to home, as she had experienced homelessness for a while herself. She stated that she and Dylan had lived in their car before and washed up in public bathrooms.

She also knew what it was like to not have enough food to eat.

She began to get into a habit of packing two lunches every single day, one for her son and one for his classmate. Soon, the mother of the little boy figured out what was going on. That is when Josette got a call from the school, asking her to come in.
