Your 14 year old child has recently died. :'( Food and cooking is the last thing on your mind. What would you appreciate having ready to heat and serve?
Will move later

The father will most likely not have an appetite due to the initial depression that sets in, but if I had to guess, I'd say he would probably appreciate eating one of the meals that he and his 14 year old would often share (almost in honor of the child, as to show that they continue to live on in his heart and mind).

Mod, please delete your own thread.

Something that goes well with a good wine. Trust me, he's going to want a drink.

I have no idea what that would be ... but, I will be taking him home cooked food periodically ...

Quite the opposite.....why would he want something to remind him of something he just lost.
-
Mac N Cheese........easy to make, quick to serve, and lots of calories which he'll need as he's not going to be eating much due to the stress.
-
He will only eat sparingly at this point. Anything to keep him moving. He wont care what it is.
-
Soup,easy to eat. Make it nutritious.
Poor guy,I feel for him.

Because it is probably one of the few things that can still keep their memory alive.
When I was a young man (late teens), my father and I used to go to Washington Square Park (in New York City) to play chess with random NYU students, local Russians and even bums). Even after his death, I would often go to play chess with random strangers. Although, he was gone at that point, I would often feel as if he was still there over my shoulder, leaning in and whispering, "That was a stupid move you fool".
The memory of him is always amplified while playing there or even by walking past that park.
Keep their memory alive, they will forever be a staple of your life regardless of their passing.

Lasagna. Make it in a large pan and he can eat it for days.

That is kinda true, I eat a lot more carb junk when down. Especially if you take a break from working out and shit. Good homemade chicken and noodles, or some nicely smoke ribs would be aight.

This. My mom brings me stuff like this frozen in a large aluminum pan with baking instructions. I just throw them in my freezer and throw it in the oven when ready.

Remind him? that's all that dominates his mind it's not like he forgot and this will ' remind him '

Pork tenderloin or reg pork loin w a bit of bbq sauce in a crockpot.
4-5 hours on high or about 8 on low.
After it's cooked drain the liquid and put in bbq sauce and mix it up. Deliver the crockpot w a bag of nice rolls so they can make sammiches. Super easy for the recipients to deal with .
14 years old :(. I assume this is a terrible loss for you as well. Condolences princess :(

If it's recent the person may be pretty normal headed... it takes time until it sinks in and the real grief starts.

What a fucked up thread

All differences are squashed with threads like these. We are all a Getbig family. Princess L, I am sorry for this guy, and for you.

I don't think necessarily in terms of a meal...but whatever comfort food he likes. You obviously know this person well enough to do something like this for them so you should know what he likes. I am torn on the "what she used to eat" thing because you don't know if he liked it too. If nothing else, maybe get him out of his house and to yours (non sexual connotation here) and make him the meal. Sit there and finish cooking. Sometimes getting someone out of their environment that reminds them of their loved one is best.

Nothing, wouldn't have an appetite and very little to live for.
-
bottles of
tequilla

:(

Some toast and a cup of tea

Getbig mods............... ::)
one supporting tbombz gay dreams, another starting thread about single dad and his dead child.
This place is really fucked up.
-
RIP NO parent should EVER out live their child. NEVER.

sad coach... what about all those athletes you take under your wing? they would miss you.
-

lol
:D
-
high calorie... since appetite will be minimal.
maybe whatever food will sop up alcohol (bread/greasy?) and will offset the negative depressant effect of drinking, boost endorphins.
Company would matter more than anything.

The sperm donator usually gets fucked over sooner or later. Now dad is paying 50% to his ex-wife and probably a load of child support too... dumb dad.
Dad let his dick think for him which caused huge financial ramifications later... dumb dad.
-
Nothing....leave him alone. He doesn't want anyone around to "comfort" him or talk to.
-
wtf srs
-

I was a single dad for seven years, my son is my life and soul. I much as I love my wife and my athletes Nothing could replace my son. Even the thought is unbearable.

Princess L pulling on my heart strings :-(

What if you had other kids, are they not worth living for, in that scenario don't you think they'd need you more than ever? ???

If I had other kids then thats different but at 50 Idon't. Three years my wife miscarried and that was tough enough. Look, I'm not saying I would off my myself. But I don't know how me or anyone else could handle that kind of loss. But for me, there is a God factor Thay would bring me some comfort.

So you are seriously asking the parents here what they would be hungry for if their kid died?
If you were raped for three days straight by five men and found out you were pregnant...whats an appropriate baby shower theme ?

I know she means well but she could have worded that a little differently.

WHOA. Laying the smackdown. :-X
But a valid "point" nonetheless.
If a mod hadn't started this thread it would have been moved to General Topics immediately.

Be on the look out for less than good decisions on his part...Anything from harming himself, drug binges, to taking money (either from his own accounts or insurance payouts) and just flushing it away in a fit of grief.
A guy I knew lost his step daughter and his wife in a 6 month interval. I warned him to go slow in what to do next, to use the insurance payouts to finance his son's college education. He quit his job in computer cartography...and went to Amsterdam...rented an apartment that cost 175 dollars a day... and over a course of three months blew every nickel he had.
His son now is having a hell of a time financing his education...

Thank you for all of the sincere suggestions. Having 3 friends lose their daughters over the course of 10 days has my brain in a bit of a fog. :-[
Comfort foods seem to be the logical choice.

You are saying you have 3 different friends that have all lost their daughters PLUS one single dad friend who has lost a son?
::) ::)

No. Single dad is one of the 3 who lost a daughter.

Very old school. I haven't made those in years, although they always seem to appear at every church function. I didn't know they were called funeral potatoes. What's your recipe?
