[quote=Anonymous]As a parent of a teen with a real eating disorder, all I can say is that you have it easy. He does not have an eating disorder. But, given that you hate how he eats and get embarrassed in restaurants (which I think is pretty weird since there is nothing embarrassing about someone expressing preferences about how their food is presented), it doesn't make sense for you to continue to try to bond over food. Apparently he doesn't care about food. Why wouldn't you decide to try to find common ground instead of trying to change him. One other thing. I have never heard of toddler medicine. There is children's medicine, which is fine for 13 year olds. And, given that an accidental overdose of something like Tylenol is a big deal and can cause health issues, it makes sense that his mom would supervise its administration. That's not babying.
