[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care how you were raised, I can't imagine gobbling up all of dinner knowing that my teen is going to be hungry when he gets home. [/quote]

Yeah, I mean, don't you make enough food for 4 (or whatever number of people)? And so if the 3 people at home eat the food for 4, aren't they overeating? That sounds greedy. [/quote]

I do think this is, at least partly, a family size thing.  
I have 4 kids, including 2 teens.  If I make enough food for 6 of us, 5 people can eat all of it pretty easily.

Op again. I think or what I have noticed is, if you have a family of 5, you make enough for a family of 5 and everyone may have two or three servings and all has been eaten. Maybe a small portion for leftovers. If you cook enough for 5 but 3-4 people eat, those eating will eat more than they would in the 5 setting. Then who’s responsibility is it to save for the people not there or in DHs case it becomes fend for themselves as there’s usually another meals leftovers in the fridge or they would eat wherever they are at meal time.
