[quote=Anonymous]Kid is 9 now and has to eat from what’s offered. There is more leeway at home obviously. She prefers carrots raw for example so has those as a veggie with dinner while I may have a different vegetable. I don’t like ketchup but if she wants ketchup on her chicken burger she can have ketchup. We went to a friends house for dinner s couple of weeks ago, pot luck style, my kid tried a few things but ultimately ate bread and fruit. It was fine, it was one meal. We were there to enjoy our friends not battle over food. But I’m also not bringing something just I know she has something I know she’ll eat. I have a friend with a 12yo son that really only eats chicken nuggets. We were all going to have dinner together yesterday but the Mexican we wanted to try didn’t sell nuggets so we had to choose somewhere else. That’s just craziness. They cater to him because he has autism and they don’t want him to lose his shit….. but now he’s over weight and only eats about 5-6 things. [/quote]
