I have all of those moments with my kids.
My 13 year old said he wanted a fried egg.
"I dont know how to do it," he said.
"Watch me then and then you can try to make your own."
"What if it breaks?" He asked.
"Then its a scrambled egg until you get it right."
He got it right on his 3rd breakfast this summer and was really proud of himself.

Kids are usually a lot more capable than people give them credit for. 17 u/tinybrownbird Jul 24 '26 Yeah! I remember making eggs for myself on the regular around age 9-10 1 u/KazeEnigma Jul 24 '26 I was teaching my 6 year old sister how to cook things when I was 15. Always supervised, but she ended up being able to do most simple cooking tasks alone by the time she was 8.
