[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have inexpensive food available at your rental place - cereal, hot dogs/buns, spaghetti/sauce, chicken drumsticks, mac & cheese, eggs, lunch meat, bread, English muffins. [/quote]

I'd be inclined to model healthful eating.  Lots of vegetables filling each meal plate at dinner.  Fruit with lunch.  Omelets for breakfast with English muffin for kids but not cereal, which isn't going to be enough and too carby.[/quote]

He's 19, not 9.

Sounds to me like he wasn't taught any manners.  [/quote]

And even for 9 years old it would be bad, really. I can understand a 9 year old not understanding something like "market price" (although they should have been coached by their parents before going on a trip about making sure they were always aware of prices and not ordering anything expensive) but wolfing down entire packets of cookies without anyone else getting any of them is not normal behavior for a 9 year old.

For a late teen, it's quite outrageous. And I don't think this particular kid is following any models of how to eat. That's the whole point - OP said that this kid is the only one eating like that. The others are actually modeling healthy eating, and also ordering appropriately priced menu items. The kid is just not going along with the program.[/quote]

LOL when was the last time you ordered the cheaper option on a date lady?[/quote]
