I have one boy with Cushings and another with diabetes. The OP has opened a can of worms with this mom. I have one who is on a strict diet and one who is obese from a terrible disorder and the OP has the nerve to chastise parents who serve cereal?
I can't believe my parents let me eat cereal every single day. Cheerios, Kix, Corn Flakes, Oatmeal, Raisin Bran, Granola....what were they thinking?
Most days they let me drink 100% juice too! Imagine all the horrible sugar!
My mother kept a little notebook when I was an infant recording what I ate and drank. She gave me orange juice when I was FIVE DAYS OLD.
I'll be 53 in August. I've been in the hospital twice in my life--when I was born, and when I gave birth. Good thing for my mother--I probably coulda sued her!
Cereal doesn't count as a meal. Neither does a value meal, unless it's just some days. Poor diets can be blamed for overweight kids. They're fed junk, therefore they're not very entergetic so they eat more and feel lazy. They perform poor in school. Or underweight kids.
Cook your kids 3 meals a day.
So, if I stick the cereal in the microwave before serving it to the kiddies, does that count as cooking a meal?
Its holidays here and so we are allowing sugary breakfast cerials.
Coco pops, some terrible looking coloured ring things, If they have seen it on TV or at a friends house then I think we probably have it right now.
And chocolate paste on white bread. They found something worse (more chocolaty) than nutella.
I guess we fail on the 3 cooked meals per day.
We even had
wait for it
Ice cream for dessert last night. (Normally we do not have dessert)
I just remembered something....sometimes my mom let me have PIE for breakfast. Yes, that's right. PIE.
My mom let us have chocolate cake (it was homemade, maybe that makes it better?). But we would also have cottage cheese with it too.
My DH thinks that's disgusting - I just don't understand why - they seem to be a perfect combo.
