[quote=Anonymous]We only make our kids eat all the vegetables and try a bite of the main entree at our usual dinners. On holidays, I usually pile their plate with things I think they'd like. They sample them (or don't sample them) and fill up on what they like. Holidays are meant to be enjoyed. Kind of like how we let our kids have juice and cake at birthday parties, but don't give it daily. DH comes from an Eastern European family who eats a lot of ethnic food (especially on holidays!). DH thinks it's important his kids grow up knowing the food, cooking the food and eating the ethnic food. I personally don't like a lot of it, but I smile and eat some bites. And that's what I expect my kids to do too.[/quote]
