[quote=Anonymous]So one member of the family has a significant food allergy. They (and their parents) deserve to have his health concerns taken seriously. Your children deserve to be able to eat normally on vacation. But when there is a conflict, your nephew's health concerns beat you child's hotdog bun. So-- start from the position that one kitchen will be kept GF and one will not. Ask your sibling which kitchen they would prefer to cook your nephew's food in. If they insist on both, then ask why, listen and explain that you need to find a safe place to prepare and store some gluten products. How does your sibling think this should be handled? Ask what else you can do accommodate your nephew-- like using disposable kids plates, and not allowing your kids to eat gluten cookies in front of your nephew. You are aiming for sensitive, but not insane. [/quote]
