J'Accuse... I do not believe a sizeable minority on here when they say "I blah blah blah"

[Salmotrutta]

E.g. :-
"I cook from scratch" - I hate "from scratch". We used to say "everything was homemade".

And those of you who state "homemade potato wedges" ? ...yeah, I'm impressed. So that would be some potatoes shoved in the oven then?

'Has he been assessed for autism?' Since when is that synonymous with acting like a twat. 'Is he depressed?'

My husband has gone for a night out its 1am and he's not home. What should I do.

Have you thought about phoning local hospitals/police

The only things positively correlated to cancer are smoking and certain industrial chemicals like benzene and radiation exposure. Many things might be more likely to be alongside cancer in adulthood.

My daughter got cancer. It wasn't caused by sugar. It was a rare form of leukaemia. Her bone marrow was fundamentally, genetically, catastrophically malformed. She was 9 when she died.

But thanks for that sanctimonious diatribe.

Life is for living. Some don't even get the chance to do that past childhood.

Ease up there Back2 - are we not allowed to have a cathartic confessional then?

Well said expat!

Well as long as we're confessing...
10mo dd recognises the Netflix logo. If she could talk she'd probably squeal Pocoyo when she saw it.
She has a combination of finger and spoon fed food but she eats well before we do. I keep being told how important it is to share meals with her. Yeah great so my food slowly congeals on my plate!
Also she got upset that me and dp were eating and she wasn't (she'd just had lunch) so dp brushed the salt of a Mcdonalds chip and let her play with it.
Sometimes I forget to brush her teeth.
She's gonna turn out to be an over weight cereal killer isn't she!?

Roobix!

There's always one that's gotta piss on your party!!

I knew it. I knew it wouldn't be long before this thread was taken too seriously. Yy we are all feeding our kids 'junk' 24/7, mine are on fructose infusions while they sleep, I rub glucogel into their gums every 2 hours, don't want to miss out on vital rotting time.

Well said expat

The point of this thread isn't people boasting about feeding their kids sugary crap, it's a cathartic outpouring of parents saying, yes my kid eats crap sometimes and I'm not going to lose sleep about it, because it won't kill them, ffs. Chill out.

My favourite appliance is my air fryer.

My kids can safely and quickly make their OWN fish fingers for their sandwiches (with or without curly fries courtesy of iceland) and can even pretend that it is healthier too.

More time for mnetting for me.

Dinner is "pan" friend scallops, what other ways can you fry fish?

Excuse me? I wasn't the one who said it was. That was someone else, I was responding to them, wind your neck in.

I subscribe to all in moderation.

vital rotting time LOL!

I don't think people were boasting about feeding crap to their kids. We were mostly saying that we don't believe the holier than thou stance of some people who equate a piece of chocolate with serious child neglect.

Mine do like prawns, pan-fried, but they won't touch kale.

One does have autism, but he is not allowed to behave like a twat because of it.

Anyway I made a human "from scratch". What more do you people want!

back2 I think you have misunderstood.

For me anyway this is in part at least tongue in cheek. A refreshing break from the endless upright judgement and smuggery of others as though you might love your child less because they drink very weak ribena.

Personally I have just finished making up some lovely omlette pinwheels for DD's lunxh tomorrow and yes, I worry greatly about what I feed her. The point here is that I can feel safe in the knowledge that admitting that she had a lolly for breakfast on s lazy Sunday is not going to run to pages of frankly disturbing accusations and assertions

Oh, x posted now!

Hmmm.... what poncey title can I use for my 'chucked in the air fryer and left til it went 'ting' cooking?

Not deep frying
Not pan frying (makes me go when I hear that phrase)

But....

You and me both treacle!

What kind of stealth boast is that when??? An air fryer ?

Poncy enough I reckons!
