[quote=Anonymous]And this is why so many men and a lot of more relaxed women dislike women like you. Sadly, so many women are like you. Constantly wanting to die over an issue that is so inconsequential and unimportant. Your husband must be dealing with constant small issues that you can't stand and have to pick on, and on and on.....You should ask yourself why do you have the need to make drama out of everything, even a small thing like this? Your approach is weird in any culture. You have a grandson coming for two weeks, most grandmas I know would make an effort to feed the kid during  the visit, what kid likes. That is what kids love about grandmas, they let them eat what they want! Even my European mom cooks what my kids like, even when that thing was a hamburger and spaghetti. My kids were picky due to severe GERD, and while healthy options were presented, they also had what they liked. We never forced kids to eat anything. I am happy to report that my mom was as happy as can be, when my DD just now, older teen visited and asked grandma to make her fish with zucchini, cauliflower and broccoli. She ate grandma's roasted peppers and soups. First time ever she ate white bean soup and told grandma it was delicious. She eats almost everything now, except tomatoes, which is fine, GERD still there so her pediatrician doesn't want her eating tomatoes. So maybe rather than planning a full on food invasion of your step-grandson, who already has to deal with step family, uprooted childhood, how about you feed him what he likes and try to be a nice grandma so that both of you can actually enjoy his visit and he can relax a bit?[/quote]
