[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your relative is crazy. You’re insane for indulging this. The way normal people handle holidays is to make sure to have a few options that the kids will eat and then cook an adult meal. Also, even as an adult I often don’t eat every single dish at a holiday dinner. Maybe I only want mashed potatoes and skip the sweet potatoes this year. It’s perfectly fine. It’s bizarre to think that kids have to eat every single dish at a holiday spread. [/quote] +1 There are plenty of "kid-friendly" dishes that are traditional holiday foods -- ham or turkey, mac and cheese, potatoes, etc. If there's a variety of foods, then everyone should be happy. No normal person expects ANYONE at the meal to eat ham AND turkey AND mac and cheese AND beef Wellington at the same meal. That's nuts, and you should ignore her. [/quote]
