CAN YOU HELP THIS MOM?

It happened again today. My 15-year-old son forgot his gym clothes. They are sitting on the counter and he forgot to put them in his bookbag. He remembered to pull out clean clothes and bring them downstairs, but did not get them into the bag to take to school. Do I 'save' him and bring them to him at school or not? If I don't, he will be reprimanded by the teacher. If I do, I am telling him that it is OK to forget and Mom will 'save' him. College is just around the corner and I won't be around to 'save' him then. What is the 'right' thing to do?
