You guys think cottage cheese and Ramen are the problem?
I think Pp is calling the kids tubs of cottage cheese, not saying they shouldn’t eat cottage cheese. I’m perplexed what his issue is with taco Tuesday — tacos are super healthy. We do ours with grilled fish, beans, grilled veg, homemade guac, chopped mango. Yummy yummy. Don’t come for my tacos.

And the fast food ads on tv, wow. I don’t know how people eat that stuff. I guess if you’re poor you get what you can, but little wonder there are so many fat, sick young folks. Has life expectancy shrunk here?

Tacos are not super healthy. Have you seen how many carbs, sodium, and cals are in tortilla shells alone? We all know most people are going out to restaurants on taco Tuesdays and getting ‘fish tacos’ which are breaded and fried fish drowned in some kind of creamy spicy sauce that packs a ton of cals, or they’re getting tacos loaded with cheese and fatty cuts of beef and gobbling it down with chips and queso or chips and salsa on the side.
Fat.

We're not allowed to tell our teens to eat less/be more active when they're looking chunky because that's body-shaming
I live in a college-town outside of the DC area and I can't get over how these college kids and what they wear showing off their huge butts and fat bellies. Nobody was walking around like that when I was in college.
One thing I have noticed on this board is the successful, UMC dismissal of the importance of actually preparing real food for one’s family. Way more important for both parents to always be hustling to make as much money as possible. Why bake bread when you can buy it? Why cook a meal when you can get takeout? Why prepare your teenager’s dinner when they can eat a peanut butter sandwich or a bowl of Cheerios. (And this is not meant as a SAHM vs WOHM debate. My parents worked but also prioritized cooking for the family with actual real food. My generation seems to have completely different priorities from my observations.)
So if the kids these days don’t think that what they’re putting in their bodies matters, that’s on the generation before them.
My mom worked part time, she will teach a couple class in the am, take a nap at noon and tutor a few students in the evening, and make dinner.
I work from 8-6pm plus 3 hour commute.
Is this a counter or a justification for feeding your kids crap?

Man, Gen Z is so fat and out of shape when 40 and 50 year old somethings are in better shape than they are.
Sizeism and “fat-shaming” are forms of oppression, OP.
Jeff really needs to ban you.
Some people need to be fat shamed

No wonder people are self conscious going to the gym, with judgmental b****s like OP criticizing every one they see.
Guessing this is an old dude. My kids are very into going to the gym. Several of the men 40+ do not realize it’s creepy as shit to make compliments and comments to teenagers about their bodies when they are working out. Both kids have very little fat so they looked more toned and I guess jacked for DS than they probably are but both have had old dudes make comments to them.
