[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop it and address it. “That comment is rude. If you don’t like calzones you can say nothing or ‘Would it be okay if I made a pbj sandwich instead for dinner?’ Try again and pick one of those options.” If she says nothing, great. If she says she’ll make the sandwich, great. If she argues with a different response, stop her immediately. “Again, I gave you two options. If you can’t choose one of those, then leave now.” Set clear boundaries. Hold her accountable for rude behavior. Give her examples of the correct way to respond. Rinse and repeat. [/quote] “Would it be ok if I…”. No. No. That is not the language a parent should use in this case. OP doesn’t need her daughter’s permission and she doesn’t need to serve an alternate food that is preapproved by DD. [/quote]
