That's not always the case. When I was a child I starved myself for 3 days and would have gone longer till my parents put me back on the food that I would eat. That's not healthy, especially coupled with a illness that makes putting on weight hard (Crohn's). For some people its psychological as my eating disorder started by me choking on mash potatoes (first time trying them) when I was a small child. I thought I was going to die as it was pretty bad but afterwards I refused to eat anything new even if it looked delicious. My parent's tried everything, they took me to doctors, therapists etc and nothing worked.

I am now 30 years old, 6 foot, 14 stone and my diet is still crap even though I've managed to add a few new things to it. I love eating a well done steak for example but if you stick a Sunday dinner or a full English breakfast in front of me I would refuse to eat it, I would feel sick etc. I want to eat like a normal person but my brain refuses to let me if that makes any sense.

I used to have to watch my parents eat tripe. Thankfully I was never asked to eat that. I think my parents knew that there are certain boundaries that cannot be crossed.

I used to get told if I didn't eat what was on my plate then I would have it for breakfast. Seeing as my mum was skint for the most part that actually turned out to be the case.

Now I will pretty much eat anything. I won't necessarily enjoy it, but I will eat it. Buut, that makes eating what I do like that much better.

Basically if a child refuses to eat what is put in front of him then he generally needs educating in how lucky he is to have the choice. If that doesn't work for the ever so special little snowflake then he needs to be fed nothing until he eats what is put in front of him.

Food is food, it serves to feed the body, sometimes you just have to suck (chomp!) it up to get by, a sad fact of life unfortunately.

I agree - but to use your specific case is an example of an extreme outlier.

In the same way you can point at a 50 a day smoker who lives to 100 it's not something you base standard opinion on...

I love the 'I'm not a parent, but I'd be a perfect parent' attitude
I can understand that sort of "OMG you can't possibly imagine how hard it is" bullshit from parents, but not from people who haven't got kids.

Top tip: Some people have looked after kids on their own for extended periods. The experience often turns out exactly as expected in every way. You know, just how you imagine (or remember) it?

My wife has looked after kids for 20 years or so, she agrees that if you give them an inch they will take a mile.

Watching a film in Norwegian. Why they fuck didn't they just film it in English, its not like there are any Norwegians that aren't fluent in English...

Parcel deliveries. I can see by the tracking system that my parcel is sat about 3 miles from my house, but I'm not allowed to go to the depot and pick it up myself until they attempt to deliver, which won't be until Tuesday because there's a bank holiday here. And the missus will be out on Tuesday so it will be Wednesday before they can deliver. Now apparently you can get the company who took the order to change the pick up option, but they are now closed until Monday...

Parcel Safe. Best thing I ever bought. They went out of business though I think.

Theatres in city centres

Only families and old people go resulting in huge amounts of people walking very slowly around the city centre at the end of the show.

Its also like the only reason for the middle classes to go into cities too. So they behave like tourists

Unlike the city center pubs where six students share a pint and nurse it all night ;) Another generalisation for your collection :)

Yeah I've never seen students do that, but walk past the theatre every day and there's always people like that

I don't get what the issue is. You don't like people that go to the theatre?
