[quote=Anonymous]My first reaction is to suggest you nix the visit, as your grandchild seems destined for a miserable two weeks. But that aside, what I do when I host a child is to call ahead and ask for some things said child likes to eat. Maybe its meals, maybe its things like peaches, bananas, cheese, rolls, yogurt. Or he loves to drink milk. Hopefully there is a meal or two in there, like spaghetti, or loves grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. Then I make sure I have the food my guest likes on hand. I make an effort to cook the meals s/he likes at least every few days, and when I am making something s/he doesn't especially like, I make sure that there are some of the preferred side foods on the table, so everyone can find something the like to eat. If you can't manage even that, then I'm back to suggesting you nix the visit. [/quote]
