[quote=Anonymous]I suspect the challenge here is that you feel AP is expecting you to cook for her like an additional child without contributing to the process. For us, AP is on her own for breakfast and lunch. We have family dinners almost every night and she can cook for everyone (off the clock) and we'll do the dishes, or she can enjoy the meal and help out with the dishes. Staying in her room until the meal is ready and then retiring to the tv room the minute she's done is not an option. If your kids already eat an early meal, it might be good to just have her cook a few nights, and when you ask her open the conversation to include that you will help with xyz when she cooks but she is responsible for xyz when you do. If she wants a family that has family meals, she may look for rematch, which is okay, too. [/quote]
