[quote=Anonymous]It’s hard to answer your question because of how you phrased everything. I like to cook and have one child who also enjoyed cooking and baking from an early age. My other child has no interest. At by 10 or 11, my one who likes cooking could easily use the gas stove independently. I felt comfortable with him independently using the oven by 12, based on his height. My other child needs lots of encouragement and prompting to cook anything. He is 10 can the microwave to heat up a hotdog or leftovers. He is not comfortable with toast in the toaster oven because he will sometimes burn himself, despite us telling him how to take out the bread. He does not have any interest in cooking. [/quote]
