These siblings are following their Dad's cooking rules to a T! Too bad he won't reap any of the delicious cooking benefits of it, since these kids aren't technically allowed to make food while unsupervised…
Learning to cook is truly one of the nicest things you can do for both yourself and others. The earlier you start cooking, the more effortless it'll become over time. There's so much to learn: every ingredient cooks differently, for example. You can put an onion in a pot and walk away for a while before it's cooked to a golden brown, but if you try that with herbs, you'll be staring down a crispy black mess burnt into your pan. Meats don't need to be flipped over and over again during cooking (if you want them to be juicy and tender, that is), but a rookie mistake is flipping that steak every 3 minutes to make sure it hasn't been burnt.
But before you get to any of that, as a child, you can do things that don't involve heat, like chopping up vegetables with safety knives, measuring out some sugar or milk, or even just giving your parents a helping hand with the dishes! If your parents are patient enough to teach you the very basics, you'll be well-equipped to cook any dish you want later in life… However, that doesn't stop parents from worrying about their kids getting burned or starting a fire while they're cooking, and it's understandable why they'd keep a close eye on them.
Now, this Dad had a rule about his children's cooking, which was that they shouldn't be doing so unsupervised. That's totally reasonable, but his kids were getting a little frustrated by the restrictiveness of this when he wasn't around. That's why we keep the pantry stocked, folks! At least let these kids have some ramen noodles or soup or something!
