“There are children starving in the world. I can give this food to them.”
This is something your Mami likes to say when you’re not eating your food. It doesn’t mean that she’s actually going to pack up your food and ship it off. Not even close.
It really means that she’s worried about you. She wants you to eat and grow and be healthy. She just likes to motivate you a little bit. Or a lot sometimes depending on how little you’re eating.
Sometimes it means you’re frustrating her by playing with your food. That, however, is most commonly a byproduct of her worry that you don’t eat enough.
Just keep eating your fruits and veggies. We’ll find other ways to help the children in the rest of the world who don’t have enough to eat. Like when we support the North Texas Food Bank.
