[quote=Anonymous]When the kids were younger, we tried to find lowest-common-denominator meals, or have two versions of same meal (cook everything together, add hot sauce to half the batch). HOWEVER, our kids were not really picky eaters and rarely refused the meal. I also tried to make sure I got consensus prior to making the food ("We're having chicken and rice tonight, OK?"), which worked to create a sense of agency, but also a little bit backfired because consensus can get exhausting. I do think that some kids are naturally pickier eaters and have a harder time eating regular meals, and if that were to happen, I'd probably have made some things for just kids and some kids for just adults. However, we'd still have had our meals together, I think that part is key. [/quote]
