[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think a lot of mothers here have no concept of how hungry teenage boys can get. [/b]Please talk to the men you know to get an idea of how much food they really need. They are not children anymore. Expect that they will require more than 3 meals a day. There should be no limitations unless you know there is an existing medical issue that must be treated with diet. Provide healthy foods including a daily sweet such as cookies, ice cream, muffins, etc. Expect that he will buy himself treats regularly, just like we did when we were teenagers.[/quote] Trust me, it’s far worse for teenage girls, who also get hungry when they’re growing, but get major side-eyes from parents when they get a little plump in the “wrong” places. This is how eating disorders begin. It’s how mine did.[/quote]
