[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do others do at birthday parties and family functions? Having an Arfid eater goes against everything you want your child to be like — ie serving them only what they can eat. [/quote] My kid is now a young adult. But when he was little I always packed food for him if we were going to be at an event for any long period of time. For things like birthday parties that are only a few hours, I didn’t bother. Getting him to eat anything was such a struggle, just being around him when we tried to get him to eat sucked the life right out of the room. I never wanted to ruin anyone else’s time by trying to give my kid food. One of the long term effects has been that I lost my own enjoyment for food. Now that my kids are mostly grown, I’m trying to reignite my joy for cooking and making different foods. [/quote]
