Dad packs pasta lunch for kids inside Ziploc bags
It's a fact – dads tend to do things differently to moms...
Some might say a mother’s job is never done, but fathers are equally skilled at pulling a rabbit out of a hat when faced with a challenge.
So, does that mean mothers and fathers play different roles depending on the country?
Without going down a rabbit hole, one thing is clear: in most parenting scenarios, kids are always at the heart of their parents' decisions.
Whether it’s something as simple as packing a school lunch, parents are always thinking about what’s best for their kids.
One father tried – and failed – to defend his decision to send his kids to school with pasta packed in Ziploc bags instead of their usual thermoses (food flasks).
Sheena Melwani, an American influencer known for sharing family content, couldn’t help but ask the question that might have crossed many minds: “What’s wrong with men?”
In the video, Melwani explained that her husband was in charge of packing the kids’ lunches that day. When he couldn’t find their school thermoses, he resorted to Ziploc bags.

That might not have been a problem if they were taking sandwiches, but pasta for lunch? Now that’s a different story.
Melwani was shocked by his choice, especially since the thermoses were right there – he just needed to check the cupboard next to where they’re normally stored.
