My wife has a bone cyst and her wrist is effectively unusable. Our teenage son volunteered to help me since we're one cook down in the kitchen this year.

My son cooks
my daughter wants to be a chef when she grows up, so i tend to involve her more in cooking and food prep. i do also teach my son how to make food and how to care for himself, obviously, but he doesn't have an interest in anything more advanced than that. my girl though, she's going to have at least one michelin star or i'll eat my hat.
Good eats taught me more about cooking than any family member ever did
It's the only cooking show I have ever watched that actually taught the why so I could experiment on my own.
If you're looking for tips.

Carving up the turkey is a manly job, just keep those knives sharp
Sharpness doesn’t matter: more power! Break out the electric carving knife

So grateful to my mom for doing this with me
My son's a little young to help in the kitchen, but my wife can relax and play with him while my mom and I cook =)
Because boys don't turn into chefs, huh.
Sadly my stepdaughter had zero interest in cooking, but her kids (boy and girl) both have an intense interest. I'd like to think that my influence, partly borne from my own mother have zero interest in teaching me how, has helped foster it.
Thanksgiving is for the kids to stay out of the kitchen. I teach cooking on other day. Cleanup is a different story. If you got hand you clean or youll catch hands.
Nobody likes a lazy MF.
Yep. One of the reasons women do all the housework, is because men where literally not taught how to. It may sound weird that someone can fix a car, paint a fence, but struggles with house chores.
It's due to literally never learning to.

Can someone recommend books on this topic? Ty
My kid is 27, if he wants to make TG dinner, I'll eat it.
My guess this is a so called “traditional” family, and this woman is trying to bring her family up to date with the 1960s.
