Well I attempted to take a computer science class to get my math ("Quantitative" at my school so there's some wiggle room) but that didn't work out for a variety of reasons. So I'll be taking straight up calculus next semester. I've decided to do this because I took super basic calc in high school and did pretty well,…

We don't, simply because it took so long to get him to eat dog food that no one wants to mess with it. He still manages to get a hold of our food quite a bit though. Once I walked in and found him standing on top of the coffee table eating the bagel I had left there.

No, my dog's problem is that he was a scavenger, so eating out of a bowl is really weird for him. He much prefers to find his food, like whatever we're eating.

I feel like he would just come out. I mean, he was secure enough to voice his affection for Michael B. Jordan. While I wouldn't be surprised if he did come out, I also wouldn't think he would write an anonymous post on thoughtcatalog about it.

Ah I already became a member, can I still use your referral link?

Do you like Ipsy? I thought about it but I haven't pulled the trigger.

Yeah Kristen Wiig's character fucked up some as well. I think it was the addition of that awful other person that made it upset me so much.

Yeah I would love for movies to explore that more, but I was really unsatisfied with how they did come back together. Honestly, Maya Rudolph's character was just a really bad friend...

Annie and Lillian really? Their shattering friendship made me completely unable to enjoy that movie.

We women are generally smart enough to figure that out but thanks!

We keep food out all the time for my dog, but I wouldn't say it's constantly full. If it's empty and he's hungry he'll come bug us, so we don't keep constant track of it. When we first got my dog, though, we had a hard time getting him to eat dog food (he was a stray for a few years) so we've never been concerned…

Ooooh were any of the Romney children in frats/in finance?

Okay, sorry, I just checked my notifications.

Anna, I know you can't tell us who he is/who his dad is.

Yeah I wouldn't judge, people are generally trying their best. I just wish this were part of the general wisdom you know? Because it's a thing you can do no matter what you are feeding your kid. I'm very sympathetic to parents who can't afford (in terms of money and time) to feed their kids super healthy food all the…

Generally, I agree with you. I just think there are lots of ways around this one, that don't involve throwing away food or forcing your kids to eat more than they want to.

Oh yeah sure I get that, and why it used to be a thing. But now, with everything we know, it seems like such an easy way to promote a good relationship with food.

That's reasonable. I was lucky enough that my parents had the time/were willing to make another vegetable if they were having one we didn't like.

Leftovers are a thing, no? We always had mostly foods that would make good leftovers (except the foods my parents knew we'd eat all of at the table) until we all learned to match our portions with our appetites.

Right which is why kids do it when their parents tell them to.
