[quote=Anonymous]I'm a PP here that thinks OP needs to dial it back a bit but why not just tell them that you are [u]trying to teach DC to use his toddler fork by himself.[/u] Tell them that the adult utensils are too big and sharp and frustrate him and you'd prefer that the person feeding him help your child by encouraging him to use his own fork. That way you don't have to mention germs at all and nobody takes it personally. I also agree that passing a child around at that age is a bad idea unless he has spent too much time in his highchair and is nearing meltdown mode.[/quote]
