[quote=Anonymous]Tell your kids that the boy is your guest and guests fall under different rules. Don't cook special meals but loosen up the one roll rule, let him add some PB etc. Tell mom she can send stuff for him to eat (maybe some extra cheese etc?) And let him eat dessert no matter what else he eats (again tell the kids "guests are different" You aren't raising this child. You don't know what his food issues are, and you don't know for sure that if he were your child, he would eat just as your other children do. He might or he might not. You may suspect you know why he only eats certain foods (because his mom doesn't make him/isn't as strict as you are) but you honestly don't know that for sure, and short of adopting him and forcing him to live with your food rules, you don't know and can't change him. Don't make meals a battle with someone else's kid. Don't make special meals for him, but let him eat whatever you have including dessert. [/quote]
