[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think the OP said anything about making the child like vegetables. She is taking the stance that they are not changing their cooking habits for the child because he is a child. It's not unreasonable. A 12 yo doesn't get to run the show at the house of a host.[/quote] At this point this thread has now run its course and is circling back again and again. OP can choose to change nothing about how she cooks, and either argue with grandson about it or not. OP can choose to find ways to evolve her cooking to make it a more pleasurable experience for her grandson and not have food be a source of argument during a 2wk visit. OP cannot magically make an adolescent love vegetables, spicy food, or other cuisines. OP absolutely can ruin a relationship by making food a power struggle with a guest.[/quote]
