[quote=Anonymous]Mine is 11 and I'm still dealing with this. My 9 year old will eat (or at least try) almost anything but my 11yo would eat the same three meals every day and be perfectly fine. Here's what I've realized. He truly doesn't mind eating the same things over and over because food is just a way to survive to him. My 9yo loves to try new things and savors his meals because he truly enjoys food. But my 11yo does not care what he is eating as long as it's familiar and will get the job done. So I've stopped worrying about it. I still try to get him to try things but if he doesn't, whatever. I get more frustrated that I feel limited in what I can cook for the rest of us but what I've started doing is cooking those "new" recipes when I know there are leftovers for DS11 to eat. My biggest issue with him is vegetables so I've learned ways to sneak that in but he will usually eat raw carrots so that's our go to. [/quote]
