As a kid, my mother never let us help her to cook or bake.. and in fact she would literally treat us like a pest.. if we even cooked in her kitchen.. because she said.. we would either dirty her stove.. or spoil it.
I used to lament about the lack of fun cooking with my mum. .but when i think back. .i knew she cannot afford to spare the time.. because she was a full time working mum. This is the reason why .. i never refused to let chloe help in washing or cooking if she wanted to.. because.. i donch want her to feel she ain’t useful. Even if she was making a mess more than helping… it’s alright.
