[quote=Anonymous]I think your relative is wrong, but to answer your question: We never make separate meals for DD. The closest we will come is offering more veggies on the side (like carrots or cucumbers) if we are having something spicy or something DD hasn't been exposted to yet and is not likely to enjoy. We still hope she'll try some, but want to be realistic and not have her go hungry. For holidays, up to this point, I've made a plate for DD with things she will like/should try. If there is some gloppy casserole monstrosity or mayo bomb salad, I will skip it; basically, if I wouldn't eat it myself I'm not going to make DD try it. I'd never expect her to try everything offered. She's 8 now and will probably be making her own plates going forward (this was all N/A last year). [/quote]
