[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is 17, a junior in high school, so very busy. I make her breakfast every morning—sometimes hot, sometimes cold. If it's cold, I still get everything ready for her: toast the bread, spread the butter, pour the cereal, etc. Yes, she's an only child. For lunch, sometimes she just wants a snack, so I put that together for her. Other days she wants a hot lunch, and I make it and have it ready when she leaves. She eats dinner with the family, and I make sure she's fed every night. I also don't purposely make foods I know she doesn't like. If she's hungry during the day, I'll get a snack ready for her, and I usually have one waiting when she gets home. I also pack extra things for her when needed. I don't see any problem with this. She's a child, and I'm her mother. Taking care of her doesn't mean she "needs to grow up." She doesn't. And before anyone assumes I'm a SAHM, I'm not—though there's absolutely nothing wrong with being one. [b]People truly need to stop judging.[/b][/quote] Why? What you do sounds truly insane to me. I'm judging you pretty hard. [/quote] Me too. And I also have a busy 17 year old. This is total insanity. Only a bored SAHM would do this shit.[/quote] +1 The "buttering the bread" part makes me think it has to be parody. She's parenting her teen like a 3 year-old. Does this high schooler tie her own shoes??[/quote] My sister was a sahm. She treated her youngest child like this up until she left home. This was her baby, and she treated her as such. My sister said she would always live near her youngest (they live 20min apart), and if her daughter moved out of state, she'd follow. [/quote]
