@blissfullybarnes: Life hack: feed your kids dinner when they get home from school instead of filling them up with snacks. This way they eat all their dinner and can snack later if they are still hungry! #momhack #momhacks #MomsofTikTok #dinnertime
My parents did this growing up. We might have snacked a little later in the evening, but we got the nutritious stuff first so it’s okay.

In Mexico that’s how we do it. It’s the best way! Kids come home starving. Who made up the rule that everyone needs to wait till 6? 😂

This does make a lot of sense. Also, I feel like I get more done when the kids are gone at school so if I cooked dinner earlier, it would cut into my chore time. But it does make sense.

this honestly makes so much sense though, cause even if they eat a snack after dinner, it's lighter on their stomach and easier to fall asleep without being bloated

Or just have a small nutritious snack when they get home from school and eat dinner at normal dinner time

this is SO smart, I can see this working really well for my family. it's intuitive eating instead of adhering to some arbitrary meal schedule that is a product of capitalism to begin with.

So in a lot of countries around the world this is normal, the main meal is after school and honestly it works so much better

This is what my mom did because my dad worked from 5am to about 3 and she would make him dinner after work. We would also be starving after school so it worked out for everyone

Does this help you avoid the witching hour at 4:30?

My mom did too. I think it’s an excellent idea. Good parenting

Yes we eat around 430. So they aren’t filling up on snacks. And sometimes they will want a snack before bed sometimes not

I like this idea and it makes sense but shoutout to most of the population who needs two incomes to survive and work until 5pm so this isn’t possible
