[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you jumping on OP are being too harsh. My kid is 13 not 16 and while capable of making very basic meals for herself I don’t expect that to happen if I’m in the house making a meal for myself. I’d never make myself a dinner I knew DD hated and expect her to eat it or make herself something. 
DD won’t eat salad ( lettuce specifically) for example, so I’ll make us the exact same protein and I might have salad and she’ll have rice and cut up veggies. 
DH is going to alienate his own kid. [/quote]

Well we don't know what her ex is making and what her DD will or won't eat. Given she will only consider a hot freshly made for her breakfast as a decent breakfast and she doesn't eat prepared foods or a cold lunch - the DD just sounds exceedingly spoiled. If OP wants to be a chef and cook 3 hot meals from scratch that are specific to her daughter's likes - she can do that but very few people have the time or money to be a personal chef for each child.

The other poster was aghast that her ex was serving meat and potatoes for dinner - the horrors!

Some people have unrealistic expectations. [/quote]
