He'll thank her one day.

A mum has been praised for insisting that her son cooks family dinner once a week., said that while her eldest son, 17, has taken an interest in cooking and makes dinner for the family up to three times a week of his own accord, her youngest, James, 15, couldn’t be less interested.

So much so that he asks his older brother to make him a snack every single day, despite being able to make sandwiches and other simple meals on his own, simply because he thinks his brother is better at it. ‘I felt this was a sign I had dropped the ball so I decided that James would take over making the family dinner once a week,’ she wrote.‘I help him with the meal planning and then I would work at the dining room table nearby in case he needed help.’‘This is an important life skill not enough people have and knowing how to do these things will allow him to put together cheap, healthy meals when he’s living on his own instead of wasting his little money on DoorDash,’ wrote one user.
