Back Packs

Back Pack Smack Pack!!! Arrgghh!! We are on our 3rd back pack of the year. We had a nice Land's End one that the seams came apart the 5th time he used it. Next was the orange one with wheels that the zipper broke on from Wal*** that has lasted the longest. Now we have a cheap one from Wal**** We have gone through so many due to the fact that Zachary's school DOES NOT issue lockers to the students. He is having to carry all the things he would normally use a locker for in his back pack. This causes the pack to tear or the zipper to break rendering the back pack useless. There is an interesting story behind all of this. The details are sketchy. If you ask the school you get one story. If you ask someone that had their older kids there when all of this went down you get the real story. For years we had lockers in school with no issue. Suddenly because of children and their naughtiness we are with out lockers. Why must things be so difficult. If anyone has any ideas on how to make these last longer please let me know.
