[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

Don’t worry, he’ll alienate her but when he creates a situation of justified estrangement he’ll flip it on OP and say she’s alienating the DD from him. Courts love men who say that. Luckily she isn’t old enough that he can drag this out in court.

Given the 16 year old can't feed herself and goes to bed hungry if her doesn't make the gourmet meal she ordered, and his ex agrees with the teen that it is unreasonable for her to eat a prepared meal or a cold breakfast or to get anything herself as she must be catered to and waited on hand and foot - he probably can't wait until she is 18.

+1. It sounds like mom has raised a real loser and he's trying to undo the damage, but it's probably too late.[/quote]

The part where he said if OP wants her to eat that way, she can come over to his house and make it herself pretty much guarantees he's just selfish or inconsiderate, not trying ti parent. If he were trying to parent he would cook together with DD and teach her.[/quote]

He cooked a meal.  Mom doesn’t like it, so she can cook herself.  This is crazy and hopefully a troll.  [/quote]
