[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Kids are in middle school. They come to me when they are hungry. I do not know that they are supposed to make their own food. They only know how to use toaster and grab cookie/chips. They can make peanut butter sandwich & make a bowl of cereal themselves. I have not shown them the proper way to use microwave, air fryer, stove or small oven. What age are they supposed to make their food and pick their food ( whatever they want, even junk food)? [/quote] My DS was helping to cook family meals in 7th grade, cooking is a life skill. He cooks a meal a week now. He has known how to use the microwave since he could reach it. We have snacks but remind him of moderation. He snack on seaweed, peanut butter toast, Raman, fruit and the like. He hasn’t started puberty so his eating hasn’t gone crazy yet.[/quote]
