[quote=Anonymous]With kids this age, complaining about the food you serve is a manners problem, not a pickiness problem. So I'd start there - it is rude to complain about the food someone (ANYONE) prepares for you. (If your kids have disabilities or medical needs, obviously, tackle this as makes sense.) The other thing that is clear to my children is that they will love some food, will like some food, will tolerate some food, and will dislike some food. My expectation is that they will try to go along with (and by that I mean, eat what the family is eating) any meal that is outside of the "dislike" category. This is part of being part of a family/community - we don't always get everything optimized for us all the time. In your shoes, OP, I'd absolutely go on a cooking strike to start the conversation around moving in this direction.[/quote]
