Armin Arlert NewbieI guess when you don't have much of something you value it more.

Same, I usually give leftovers to my pets.Never in the garbage, very careful with the amount I make/buy as well.
Mainly because I can't afford to be buying so much all the time XD -
My mom always makes us eat everything that is put in front of us. She also does all the cooking and I have never cooked a single meal in my entire life.

Or you could put it in the fridge and eat it later...

Hiccstrid I'm starting to think your mom is a weird control freak. She shouldn't make you eat everything she puts in front of you, that's just wrong.

Well if we don't then she says we're not being thankful

She sounds too strict or old fashioned. If you just eat what's in front of you then how are you meant to learn how to choose your own food portions when you're older? Also then you're body listening to your body and could be eating too much. If you don't want it all then say something like "I'm grateful for this meal but I've had enough to eat".

*not listening

I know. Another irritating thing she does is she always compares us to other children. She says stuff like "Katrina wouldn't treat her siblings like that, would she?" Or "Elanee wouldn't sass her parents like that, would she?" Or she even says "When I was your age I was cooking all the meals and staying at home alone all the time. But you're too immature to be able to do either of those."

I don't put them in the fridge mainly because I don't like leftovers unless its Pizza or Popcorn.
