    Ah, the dichotomy of Dad groups vs Mom groups. You’re judging @[email protected] entirely on one tiny happy insight into their life. Maybe their kid has underweight struggles and calories are calories. Maybe by everyday they mean everyday they have them every other weekend, but that’s too painful to say. You don’t fucking know, and this isn’t a life advice thread. Celebrate they have a kid they want to be involved with.

      Calories are absolutely not calories. Being underweight is not a free pass to the buffet. The habits we create for our kids will become lifelong struggles. Normalize healthy eating and help them learn to make good choices.

        Calories are calories when you have end stage cancer and trying to keep on the weight for the next chemo.

      My parents had me nutritionally fucked-up until I fixed myself in my '30s. parents have a huge responsibility to learn nutrition and feed their children right, So their children start out with good nutrition and good eating habits, instead of wasting 20 to 30 years of their lives suffering from nutrition-related illnesses.
