[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the OP should go out of her way to make special meals that only the grandson will like, but she really should have known what she was signing up for when she invited him for an extended stay. It is down right rude to try to make your guest as miserable as possible while they stay with you because you don't agree with how they eat. 
It is not difficult to say "Johnny, we are having a beef and vegetable casserole tonight, i would love for you to try it, but after you try it you are welcome to make a frozen pizza if you don't like it". Or, "I would love for you to help me plan the meals and cook on nights X,Y,Z. The other nights you are welcome to frozen pizza if you don't want what i have made.

Why invite this kid and then make it your mission to serve him food you KNOW he doesn't like. It is not like you served something and then found out he hated it. You are actively trying to pressure him into eating what you want. 
Pick your battles OP, this ain't it. [/quote]
