[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you aren't cooking for your teens, what are you doing for your own dinner? Are you talking about situations where you have dinner plans out?

Otherwise, are you cooking dinner for yourself and not adding a portion for your kids?[/quote]

No.  I don’t cook a big dinner for myself and refuse to give any to my children.

Sometimes I have a big lunch at work, so I’m not hungry for dinner.  Or, alternatively, I skip lunch at work, eat snacks when I get home, and am not hungry for dinner.  Or I might have carrots and hummus and olives and a chunk of cheese.  Or I might heat up some soup or grab a salad from the day before and eat it with a hunk of bread and some fruit.

There are a lot of alternatives to feeding yourself besides making full on meals three times a day.

Wow. Well, we eat normal meals in our house and so we eat dinner together every night. I usually cook because I like it, but husband and kids help most nights. [/quote]
