[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I wonder about - the divide between people who think a sandwich is an ok meal and those who think a meal has to be "hot" to count as a meal. Is that a cultural thing? I'm an italian american and I'd prefer not to eat a sandwich for every single meal, but I'd certainly count it as a "real" meal. [/quote] I think it’s more the divide between people who see the provision of food as an expression of care/love versus those who do not. Clearly the girl can make herself a sandwich and will not starve. But many people view a parents role as a bit more than that. It’s fine to sometimes have a meal your child doesn’t like and to say “okay, make yourself something else.” To do it regularly seems like he’s communicating something, either intentionally or not.
