Sarah Jessica Parker aims to instill a positive attitude towards food in her 14-year-old twin daughters, Tabitha and Marion. Unlike her own upbringing, where desserts were off-limits, Parker ensures their home is stocked with treats. She prioritizes creating a nonrestrictive food environment, promoting enjoyment rather than restriction.
Reflecting on her past, Parker recalls not being allowed desserts at home, which led to indulgence once she moved out. Determined to break this cycle, she embraces a different approach for her daughters. “In our house, we have cookies, we have cake, we have everything,” she explains, fostering a balanced relationship with food.
Parker emphasizes family meals as a cornerstone of their routine. With husband Matthew Broderick and son James, they cook together daily, fostering gratitude for shared meals. By prioritizing enjoyment and togetherness, Parker hopes her daughters develop healthy relationships with food and maintain active, fulfilling lifestyles.
