[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I WFH during the day. I fix breakfast and myself lunch. My two college-age children are home but rarely get up before noon. One is self-sufficient. The older (!) one texts me with: "Is there lunch" at like 1:30. I reply, "I'm in the middle of a work project. There's X, Y, Z options in the kitchen. Help yourself." Thirty minutes go by. "Are you done working? Can you make me nachos?" Now I'm annoyed and reply, "You are 20. You are old enough to feed yourself. Please do." Pouting now. Jesus. How is this child going to survive in the wild?[/quote] OMG. They need to be able to cook/put together foods themselves. Even cereal, yogurt, a bag of carrots, popcorn, chicken nuggets, almonds, walnuts, salad, cheese, fruit. Anything. But they absolutely need to handle this themselves. How did they get through *any* of being away at college with their attitudes? [/quote]
