Be honest, what do your older kids/teens eat for breakfast?

[Comedycook]

Mine are 12/14. My 12 year old eats a pain au chocolat for breakfast every day. Occasionally I might persuade her to have a yoghurt with it. 14 year old often skips breakfast on school days much to my dismay...but otherwise he has cereal/pancakes. I'm aware these aren't the best breakfasts ever! What do your older DC eat?

Usually a bagel or bagel thin with cheese or ham, maybe juice, sometimes coffee or hot choc or just water.

Utter crap or nothing

Yoghurt, Cheerios, jam on toast, OJ (with bits)

Nothing

One has those yogurt and granola pots. This drives me mental as we have both yogurt and granola, but she won’t eat those, it has to come in an expensive wasteful pot.

One eats 4 Weetabix at least.

One has a bagel with cream cheese and a glass of juice.

Nearly 13 year old had brioche rolls, occasionally with jam and a glass of milk. Unless I offer to get him a bacon sarnie and then he’ll have that, but would never bother making one himself and rejects all other food offers.

Juice, cereal and toast or pancakes. She likes to carb load for school 😁😁

Pancakes croissants toast with Nutella

Dc1 nothing.
Dc2 cereal (shredded wheat, rice crisps or Bran flakes) and toast.
Dc3 beans on toast or toast or small bowl of cereal.

Bran flakes, Rice Krispies, corn flakes, cheerios or toast mostly.

Weekdays during term time, I have no idea as they're at breakfast club.
Bagel / toast / porridge I think. They're only allowed sugary shit on a Friday.

Holidays / weekends usually coco pops (the only way DD2 will have milk), porridge with honey / toast / pancakes.

Sometimes cereal or bagel. Sometimes a breakfast bar. Often nothing - the school sells stuff at 1st break so they often get toast or similar there.

School days
Cereal with banana and sometimes toast

Holidays and weekends
Scrambled eggs

Today
Rice cakes with jam, grapes and hot chocolate

Cereal & yogurt on a good day. St Pierre Pain au Chocolat on a less good day. Bacon Sandwich if her Dad's home.

Ds has weetabix mixed with shreddies most days. A huge bowl full!

I make banana pancakes about twice a week and he devours those.

Now amd again he will have a croissant. Not often.

Porridge with honey for DD1 as she’s ruled by her stomach and she’s worked out it keeps her fuller for longer.
DD2 has porridge too but mostly has eggs in one form or another occasionally with a bagel

My 14yo DS has had a bowl of choc chip weetabix minis every day for as long as I can remember. We have so many other cereals available and things like toast, fruit, yoghurt but he's a creature of habit. At the weekends I tend to offer something more interesting like eggs, croissants, pancakes, bacon sandwich or maybe even a cooked breakfast, which he'll have...but only after he's has his weetabix first!

10yo DD is not a big breakfast eater. She'll have a croissant or a chocolate brioche but we don't tend to have them available every single day. Sometimes she'll just have a cup of tea.

12 year old has toast or cereal usually. Loves porridge. Much better than me at that age because it was pop tarts/muffins washed down with Sunny Delight in those days.

Mine eat terribly for breakfast - chocolate spread on toast or pain au chocolate/croissant. Sometimes crumpets or Weetabix. I wish they'd eat eggs or fruit and yogurt or something more nutritious.

Peanut butter or marmalade on toast, porridge with hot chocolate powder, shreddies with hot milk, scrambled eggs or a combination of the above, sometimes nothing. Glass of squash.

Blimey, 3 x nothing in first few posts. My 2 eat tonnes. I think a breakfast for brain power in morning school is important.
Ds1 makes proper porridge from Scottish oats. Or scrambled eggs. Or 4 x weetabix. Ds2 has huge bowl of cheerios, 4 x weetabix, 2 slices thick toast with Nutella. Both have a banana or a satsuma too.

Dd13 has 4 weetabix and a small glass of smoothie.
Ds 15 has one buttery crumpet and a handful of raspberries with a small glass of smoothie, but only because I make it for him. He would have nothing if I left him to it.
On the weekends they skip breakfast and go straight for lunch as they aren’t up until 11 or so.

14 yo

Cereal, yogurt or bagel during week with fruit juice

Square sausage or scrambled egg sandwich at the weekend

He'd eat nothing of left to own devices though

DS17 : Sometimes nothing, sometimes a peanut butter sandwich ( because toast is too much effort apparently )The other morning I found him eating three slices of cheese , no plate , no bread and then noticed two packets of crisps had already been taken from the multi pack that Asda had delivered 30 mins before. He only eats a proper breakfast if I make it for him. He is very lazy when it comes to preparing food.

DD14 - a pain au chocolate , waffle or a coco pops bar that she eats on the way to school but at weekends insists on us making her boiled eggs and toast soldiers.

Mine always had porridge. They're in their 20s now, and still do!
