[quote=Anonymous]Let's get REAL. It is not "inconveniencing" a host to have him or her cook simple meals for a couple of weeks--meals they may well enjoy or sometimes make themselves. Roast chicken with sides; grilled steak with sides; pizza and salads; spaghetti and salad. Grandpa can take over meals for a few weeks if all Step-Grandmother knows how to make is traditional German fare. This is basic-level stuff that any loving grandparent does for a pre-teen grandkid visit. And even if you don't want to change your traditional German fare routine, simply tell him this is dinner, but allow him to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich if he needs to supplement. This is not super complicated. OP winding up to teach this kid a lesson--as a welcome speech, by the way, without actually seeing how even ONE meal goes first--is the ridiculous, unreasonable thing here. [/quote]
