[quote=Anonymous]Well, OP, how is this for wasteful?  My DS just ordered a potato soup, turkey dinner and a stack of pancakes and a lemonade!  He ate two spoons of soup, since it was too milky, he ate all of the turkey, but barely any mashed potatoes, and he ate one pancake, and really that was just him forcing himself to eat while I kind of smiled at him. He is a nice kid, unlike your rude DD, so we did take leftover mashed potatoes home, but soup was wasted. He didn't drink the second glass of lemonade, but it was free refills so, who cares. By your logic, I should be screaming my guts at him.  But, I instead, I said, "that's ok, if you don't like the soup, leave it.  You gave it a try." And we had a nice mom and teen son dinner, and you can even guess where by his order, I bet. That is what I want to remember, my 17 year old and I going out to eat, and he taking time to go out with his mom, who is, by his account, often quite embarrassing and talks too much. He is off to college next year and I prefer not to spend our time together yelling at my kid.[/quote]
