Food and TV have become the babysitters. Kid starts whining- give them something to eat. No time to fix anything so just grab a snack. Chips. Soda. Cookies. As long as the kids are quiet. No time to watch them? Plop them in front of the TV. At least they are out of my hair for a little while.
We didn't drink sodas much. We could have one on Saturday night while we watched some TV with Mom and Dad. Watching was limited. We were sent outside to keep busy and out of her hair. Mom cooked meals every day too. An old fashioned stay at home. Eating out was only on special occasions- even if it was to the cheap pasta place with the wonderful homemade sauces and meatballs and fresh pasta.
