I don’t buy donuts and sugary cereal for the house. But there is nothing wrong with a bowl of plain Cheerios or a homemade bagel. We make a lot of bread in my house: bagels, baguettes, sourdough, flat breads. Rest assured teens are getting donuts at plenty of sugar at school.

Homemade?? Ha.

Tell yourself what you want, but cereal, waffles, pancakes,...all garbage. These should be considered desserts not meals. It's not an eating disorder to eat healthy and to limit processed starches and added sugar. You are using these arguments to deflect that you are just LAZY. I guarantee you that your kid doesn't eat more carbs than my kid. You can get BETTER carbs with whole wheat breads and fruits for breakfast. Your cereal isn't giving your kid energy for school. Most likely causing a crash. And with that said...I'm not against having a dessert...not just for breakfast!

How is whole wheat bread better than whole wheat cereal?

no one who "isn't thinking about calories" skips breakfast.

Why would you think that? Many people don't get hungry till later.

I wouldn’t do 2-4 hours of morning dance or exercise in zero calories since yesterday’s dinner.

Surely she’s eating something before noon.

Why would teens who have no excess body fat, size O be thinking about calories. They don’t eat breakfast.

They don’t, I’m talking about my dd and her group of friends who go to lunch together. They eat lunch at noon and eat cheeseburgers. Subs. Caesar wraps. They don’t go to the lunch room for lunch that we paid for. I’m sure there are some dancers who eat breakfast and lunch in the lunchroom.

Not everyone is the same with the same habits. It’s as if people can’t fathom that there are teens who don’t follow the same schedule that you do.

Or various other things, like yogurt with fruit. It's so nice that I don't have to worry about her.

Hopefully she’s brushing her teeth after that smelly meal!

It doesn't smell at all. She does brush her teeth. And you're so racist. You think your food doesn't smell?

Whoa, what do you mean racist? Sardines stink! They have a very fishy smell. Since when is it racist to point that out? I just wouldn’t be having that strong smell before school.

Eating sardines can cause temporary, strong-smelling breath and lingering kitchen odors due to natural compounds like trimethylamine.

Is AI racist too?

Now we know you are full of it. Sardines have a very strong odor. But you say it doesn’t smell?! Bullsh$t.

I do. I’ve never been hungry first thing in the morning. I don’t get hungry until about 11.

Same. I've been disgusted by breakfast since middle school and it has nothing to do with calories.
