[quote=Anonymous]My mother made my brother (the favorite) "first day of school French toast" each year on the first day of school. She otherwise never made either of us breakfast from kindergarten on. We had yogurt and a piece of bread, or cold cereal or Farina or Cream of Wheat. When we got older we might make scrambled eggs on occasion (but cleaning up from that took time we didn't have in the mornings).

She never made our lunches. We either took an American cheese sandwich, a salami sandwich or most of the time, a PB&J. We either got a bag of potato chips or Fritos with that, and were expected to drink from the water fountain. By 16 we had each been cooking dinner for the family at least once a week, for several years.

Our stay at home mom wasn't super nurturing regarding food, but neither of us had food issues from it, and do things differently as adults with our own kids now. My point is, teach your kid to be self-sufficient. If time after school is an issue teach her to batch cook.[/quote]
