Do what you want in your house.

But picky eaters who impose their pickiness on others are being rude and are usually PITAs, whether they ask politely or not and whether their hosts gladly comply or not. As a gracious host, I would never say to a guest's face, your family is rude, but I do think that it is terribly inconsiderate if the host has already chosen a menu. I've trained my children not to complain, or to ask for alternations from a recipe for a dish unless the chef offers (e.g., "how would you like your eggs?"). Your kids won't starve if they eat only a few things on the plate. [/quote]

Excellent post, PP. I agree![/quote]

i also agree.  My kids know to eat what's there or say no thank you.  BTW, my kids don't need cute cookies-they usually look better than they taste anyway.   My three year old will take one and take one bite and give it to me.  [/quote]

My kid also knows to eat and to say "no thank you" when a guest and he also sucks it up and eats when the host serves something he doesn't like, only because he is well behaved and considerate. Not because I make him eat what I put on the dinner table. My mother never forced me to eat anything and I am an extrememly adventurous eater and cook. So I've continued what my mother did. I still prepare foods I know he'll eat for school lunches and at home. Kids are people too. I totally agree with the PP who said each person in her family gets a meal that revolves around what they like. It shows that you care about their preferences too!

To OP as far as a good dessert for kids...how about brownies with ice cream...or apple dumplings with ice cream? I brought some to Thanksgiving last year and the kids couldn't get enough![/quote]
