danishcanadian My husband and I would both agree with you on this matter. We are more interesting in having houses that are lived in, than houses that are in perfect order. In order to keep a house perfectly tidy, one must devote almost their entire lives to cleaning, and we...

daydreamer20 I don't have any children but I do want my things to be in order. It's good to train the kids up to be in orderly fashion as well. Otherwise, the next thing you know is they've misplaced your diamond ring or something. :) It's a good lesson for them to learn....

daydreamer20 I used to do that. I was a serious PC gamer. So I need to get new graphics card, more RAMs and proper sound card. After 3 years of upgrading, I will buy a new PC. But after that I gave up. I now focus on video game. And if there's a need for new PC, i would...

whiteheron I thank you for this post... I have a boyfriend, also from India, who enjoys cooking meals. He serves such large portions and has a hard time when I say "no" to him as in... "No I do not want any more to eat. I have had enough. Really." He say, "You can eat...

DonnaLawson Throwing away leftovers is not an option.. Although it does happen, you know the plastic container that gets pushed to the back of the fridge.. Well, that one goes to the garbage, along with the green stuff that grows so freely on the items left in the plastic...

Modestah I agree that finishing off the food from a child's plate has a tendency to add on the pounds. it is my husband who gets the honors here... when the child just simply can not finish and there is not enough to save. either that or it goes to the chickens. I...

mommyboo Hmmm. Well, to be honest we don't tend to eat a lot of leftovers, even though we do put them away in the fridge if there are any. I think what you're getting at is the idea that you need to eat whatever is on your plate. While this is a good thing in a way, it...

Lindalinda Any leftovers on someone's plate are discarded. I used to give my children small portions and if they wanted more another small portion. I never ate what they left on their plates because as you say it can lead to over eating on the part of the mother and lead...

RayPenbar I think rather then just giving them alot to eat, give out only small proportions of food, then if the children wants second they can get seconds.

dpk262006 Very interesting post! You are absolutely right. It is a common habit in children not to finish their entire food. It is a common tedency either to leave some rice, vegetable or pulse in the plate. What we can do it, we should serve them in...

toosh21 We put left overs in the fridge. I don't make my children eat everything on their plate, but I do encourage them to eat as much as they FEEL like. I don't eat what is left on their plates either, it goes in the fridge for the next day & if it doesn't get eaten...

raijin It's either I store it first, then maybe turn it into something else the next day. If it's meat, I would just cut it into little pieces and add them to fried rice. If it's veggies, I could still manage reheating them and eat it. But if ever I find something...

janujennifer If we eat at home and there are left overs, it's either we feed them to the cats, or keep it in the fridge to be reheated and eaten next time. If we eat out, we try as much as possible to eat all the foods we ordered, but if we really can't eat it all, and...

crazed_moma I won't eat the left overs off my children's plates.... unless it's something I really like. I just have my kids take care of their left overs themselves. If it's been on their plate, it goes in the trash. I try not to over load them so we don't have to waste...
