[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds to me like his mom is aware of his issues but doesn't want him to impose on your family. That's great! I would continue to offer a meal that has at least one thing he likes, (so maybe you have 3 nuggets per kid and then some veggies and quinoa salad, etc.). The only thing I woul change is that I would skip dessert until your guest is gone. Explain toyour kids that you are not willing to change your house rules, but that you feel it is unfair to offer them dessert without him. Make dessert that night something like a piece of chocolate that is very low-maintenance.[/quote] Meant to say, skip dessert until after his mom picks him up--your kids can have a piece of chocolate or something at 7, instead of right after dinner.[/quote]
