[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you cook separate adult and kid meals? Mine are 5 & 7. I try to make sure there is one thing at every meal they both will eat but I don’t cook them their own dinner. Sometimes that means they don’t eat much. Is this typical?[/quote] Op here - to be clear, they’re not starving!! They eat a ton at breakfast and lunch and have a big health snack after school. My mom was giving me grief about this and made me wonder if I’m being too tough. [/quote] Are your kids underweight? Mine are, and I typically cook one thing, and then if they don't want that, they can have something simple like a bagel and cream cheese and fruit. If I held a harder line, they would be scarily underweight. My son, who I thought was a life-long picky eater, turned 10 and started eating everything. IMO it's ok to cater to them when they are very young. Kids need to eat. [/quote]
