[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what’s so odd and weird about making your minor child meals everyday. I make my 17 year old a hot breakfast lunch, and dinner every single day. That’s my job as a parent.[/quote] Your job as a parent is to raise your child to be an independent adult. They should be able to make something for themselves by this age, and practice doing so. You are doing a disservice to your child by not teaching them to learn to do things like this for themselves at this age because soon, they will be going away to college (unless you are the type of parent who will make their child live at home with you while going to college). It's really sad to see 18 yr olds not know how to make something, do laundry, clean, etc. because the parent never taught them. For your child's sake, teach them now. - parent of 18 and 21 yr old.[/quote]
