Subject: Picky eating: did you ever just cook and make what you want?
Kids can make their own PB sandwich and pull carrots.

I always made what I wanted but would have something on the table in case the kids really didn't like it.
So, if I made something that I was worried was a bit spicy, I would have salad with carrots and tomatoes and a side of fruit and whole grain bread.
Or if I was making a meat in a sauce they might not like, I would do rice and steamed broccoli on the side and just let them eat what they want.
No one would go hungry and adults get to eat real food.

My husband and I miss food, honestly…I’m tired of trying to appease the kids. We don’t make chicken nuggets and mac and cheese every night but everything we make is pretty safe and bland.
Are we terrible parents if we just start to make what we want? Spiced chickpeas, lentil soup, etc etc?
Be kind please.
Eat what was served. Never had picky kids because it
was eat or go hungry.
