I’m glad you took it in the spirit it was intended. (Slightly chiding, but well-meaning.)

I think it can be really hard to not pass on our bad habits to our kids. Mine have a room just as messy as mine ever was, and they’re at least as bad at doing their homework as I ever was.

Good job so far!

But neither wants to eat them.

Respectfully, if neither of your children have a vegetable* dish they will eat as a snack you haven’t exposed them to a wide enough array of vegetables and vegetables preparation methods.

Don’t be afraid to add salt, roast instead of boil, or just experiment with things you haven’t tried.

(*: And “vegetable” here is strictly in a culinary context, excluding grains and near-grains like potatoes and including savory sead-bearing plant-parts like cucumbers. But if they don’t even like a form of potato or a grain, you may have a eating disorder on your hand…)

Excluding clone-troopers and only in live acted Star Wars, Stormtroopers (sometime from off screen) have hit:

1. All kinds of rebels on various planets in “Andor”
2. A whole bunch of rebels in “rogue one”
3. A bunch of rebels on the Tantive IV
4. Leia (with a stunner) on the Tantive IV
5. All those poor Jaws, plus Luke’s family.
6. The hull of the millennium falcon (to no effect)
7. A bunch of rebels on Hoth
8. C-3P0 in cloud city
9. Luke’s lightsaber blade in cloud city
10. Leia on endor’s forest moon
11. R2D2 on endor’s forest moon
12. At least a few ewoks on endor’s forest moon.
13. Din Djarin’s beskar armor
14. A bunch of other mandaloroans and extras
15. Some of those turtle-riding aliens in a distant galaxy in “Asoka”
16. A bunch of innocent villagers on Jaku
17. Poe’s parked X-wing (to great effect!)
18. Poe in the arm
19. Rei’s lightsaber blade a bunch of times
20. The hull of the millennium falcon (again, to no effect)

I think stormtroopers are more effective than Klingons, federation red-shirts, or the borg.
