[quote=Anonymous]My mother rewrites her cooking history. She often speaks about how we always had home cooked meals and made-from-scratch baked goods. My sister and I play along... but then we discuss the many times we divided a 20 piece Mc-Nugget, ate our vegetables only from a can, and made-from-scratch meant a box brownie mix. Honestly, I just think there are a whole heck of a lot more options for families now. I never got to do half of what my kids do, but that is because those weren't the options. And really, my parents did what everyone else was doing. One sport a season was sufficient, because no one else did anymore. Travel sports, year round sports- they did not exist. Ballet was ballet, not a million different specialty dance classes. There were no art, language, cooking, computer classes. Those were offered through school, and school alone. To my parents.. I did all those things. [/quote]
