[quote=Anonymous]You can't control what they eat but you can control what is available to them in your house. I would buy lots of healthy snacks. You can buy a limited amount of junk for reach week and when it is gone it is gone. I wonder too if this is about more than the eating. Do they have lots of choice / say in other areas of their lives? Why are they under so much pressure? Maybe dad being away so much is part of it. I didn't eat breakfast for years as a teen. I was not a morning person, felt sick in the mornings and never ate until lunch. sometimes I skipped lunch too and ate after school. Ideal no - did it kill me - no. I wouldn't force the breakfast thing. Maybe back off pushing nutrition and trying to get them to eat. They might eat better if they think you don't care as much...but still as I said you control what is in the house - they control what they eat. [/quote]
