[quote=Anonymous]I'll add a different perspective. My sensory DC was a scarily picky eater in the younger years. But DC also _loved_ school (still does). Having them buy lunch opened up whole new horizons because friends encouraged them to try things that the friends liked. Seriously, DC learned to eat so many basic things (like burgers) and not to fear sauces just from eating at school. More importantly, they also learned that trying something and not liking it wasn't the end of the world. Not everyone will have those needs or need those experiences. But it had very real benefits for us. At least now DC, who still buys lunch, intentionally has apple slices and plain milk as a side every day. The current project, to hear DC tell it, is to try to get used to celery sticks... And yes, we cook healthy homemade food for dinner![/quote]
