[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but I think my kids would make different choices if given free reign in the kitchen.  They would not make pancakes when they could just grab a bowl of cereal.  They certainly would not choose steel-cut oats over a frozen waffle!  But when I make it for them, they happily eat it all.  It might have to do with how I was raised... my mom made me breakfast almost every single morning until I went off to college.  (She also packed my lunch through high school  :D )  So, it is just what I am used to.  I like making sure they have an excellent diet for as long as I can.[/quote]

+1  This is what we are used to in my house as well.  I still make breakfast for my middle schooler and high schooler.  I never ate cereal growing because my hippie mother thought the amount of sugar was evil.  Nowadays, there are plenty of good cereal options, with low sugar and whole grains.  But even though I serve my kids cereal with a fruit topping (berries, bananas,etc.) sometimes, I only do it about once or twice a week because I think variety is important.  So I expect this part of our morning routine will continue until they graduate and leave home.
