[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, we do it every day. Would the kids prefer to sleep an extra 30 minutes? Of course but mornings at the table are just as important as dinners.

I wake up at 5am and get myself totally ready and then get the kids up by 6. By 6:40 they are at the table where breakfast is totally made and plated (eggs, yogurt, fruit, etc). We read the headlines and then do a last minute prep for any tests that’s day.

They leave by 7:15 for school and I take the youngest to daycare at 7:30. (3 kids total ages 4, 8and 13)

No rush in the morning and everyone leaves calm and well fed. [/quote]

Omg what’s wrong with you?

13 year olds do not need you making breakfast or going over school work at breakfast.

You sick as a parent

Your child will never be responsible adults they will have anxiety [/quote]

DP but I didn't learn to cook until I graduated from college. I cook breakfast and dinner for my family every day, and I make lunches most days too from leftovers, or just PB&J or similar. Kids are 12 and 9 and yes I quiz the younger one on math facts or spelling over breakfast. I am perfectly responsible, hold down a great job, and don't have anxiety. And my kids eat decently healthy food rather than the shlock they'd eat if left to their own devices. (Some people's kids might make themselves eggs and fruit in the morning, but mine sure wouldn't.)

Your way is not the only way.[/quote]
