[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she's now at home full time, she needs to learn to cook. I will admit I was a horrible cook until my kids were teenagers, but in my defense I worked full time and had a long commute. You are not going to be able to force her to learn to cook, but working with her to plan meals might give her the incentive she needs to do better. How is she obese if she was in the military? I have never met an obese service member ever. Also: I don't think meals for young children need to be particularly imaginative. They just need to be balanced and nutritious. Chicken nuggets, mac and cheese and apple slices one day a week is not a terrible dinner. See if you can meet her halfway and go from there. [/quote]

Agree with this PP.  He works and she stays home, but she doesn't cook?  As someone who was working when my kids were young and made the mistake of feeding them a lot of fast food, work together for a few weeks to get her started, but let her know that it is important.  Gut biome and its importance for both physical and mental health are now recognized and I feel terribly for the bad habits that I instilled in my kids.[/quote]
