[quote=Anonymous]We get take out as a family typically 1x week. Sometimes on a busy week it will be twice. Unless it was otherwise discussed I wouldn't buy my kids takeout if we weren't all eating it. But I also mostly make their meals every night. We do typically eat together or if a kid comes home late I help them heat up a plate. Its never every man for himself. I might say "you can have the chicken or the pasta" but a parent still helps provide a meal every single day. I can understand people with different scenarios though, especially if your kids have wildly different schedules. In your situation I would provide more guidance on the every man nights because it sounds like maybe your kids dont think there is enough food or they cant figure out what to eat so take out is an easy option. Even when youre not cooking would it help to make a list of available meals and leave it in the kitchen?[/quote]
