You make me feel...

You always scream and yell at me about the stupidest things. You ALWAYS hurt my feelings. And yes, MOST of the time you apologize after the fact, but it is always AFTER I have already cried for 5 minutes. AFTER I have already contemplated just leaving this world. AFTER you make me feel worthless. AFTER you make me regret ever meeting you. AFTER you make me wish I hadn’t ever been born. 

I hate that somewhere along the way I made you think that it was ok to talk to me like this. I am NOT perfect and I never claimed to be. I know I dont always talk to you with respect, but I have learned from you. I never talked to anyone the way I talk to you sometimes. I hate this about myself. I hate that I think about killing myself after you have just berated me for something so small. I know you are stressed outy to the max and I know you have anger issues of your own, but you should still never talk to someone you care about like that. You should still be able to recognize the insignificance of the situation and act accordingly. I hate that this is hard for you. 

I love you still. I love you always. I love you despite all of that. I want to teach you different. I want to teach you a different way. I want to teach you about respect.

Clean Your Plate!

As a child, you almost always hear the phrase “Clean your plate!” For me, this phrase still affects me as an adult. You do not realize sometimes how something as simple as an old phrase coined to get kids to eat, ultimately hurts them and leaves lasting feelings behind. I heard this a great deal at a daycare I went to as a child. I loved this daycare and made so many friends; had so much fun; made so many memories. I became the social butterfly I once was because of this place. But I also gained a food anxiety. “Clean your plate or you can’t get up from the table,” they would say. Every kid eats differently, so to ask them to eat everything on their plate while giving them similar freehanded amounts is unfair.

I remember one morning, I came in, grabbed breakfast like always, and sat down to eat it. It was a busy morning as other kids started filling in and the room was getting crowded. I started to get full. It was grits and eggs. I kept looking at the teacher as she would occasionally pass by and make sure I was eating. I could feel myself getting worried because I couldn’t finish what was in front of me. All of a sudden it all came back out onto my plate. I raised my hand and tried to tell her that I was done and had gotten sick, but the regurgitated grits looked exactly the same. She told me I had to finish my breakfast or I was not getting up. I am a very quiet, non-confrontational, go with the flow kind of person. Even more so as a kid. I HATED getting into trouble and did what I could to avoid it at all costs. It burned going down my throat. I wanted to cry. But I cleaned my plate and got up as fast as possible.

When I was a bit older I remember going into the bathroom scared to come out and eat because I could not finish my food. Now, I do not think they literally would have made you sit there for hours and hours, but as a young child the threat was all I needed. The tone in their voices and that pit in my stomach. A few times I would go throw up so I could force more food down. The anxiety was so great. And I stopped going to this daycare when I started 3rd grade. Not because of this, because I am not sure I ever mentioned this to my parents. But this all happened before I was 8 years old. At 5, 6, and 7 years old I had a food anxiety!!

Now as an adult, I find myself not being able to leave food on my plate. Not that I gorge myself, but I definitely over fill quite a bit. I have had weight problems my entire life and I do not blame that day care for that, but society as a whole. We should be teaching our kids, who will grow into adults, to eat until they are satisfied. There should not be any repercussions for not eating every single morsel. As adults we will be healthier and know more about proportions. But it will also decrease the amount of anxiety overall. Anxiety causes many things and leaves a lasting affect. Let your kids eat what they want. They will eat when they are hungry!
