[quote=Anonymous]I think that this is definitely not a big enough of a deal to rematch. This can be dealt with very easily.

You can talk with your AP and let her know that of course she is welcome to eat anything in the house that she wants. Tell her that however, it can sometimes be frustrating when she finished an entire (box of donuts, case of soda, bag of chips, etc.), before anyone else in the family has the chance to have any. Let her know that she is welcome to share the food with you but ask her to please not finish it before other people have a chance to have some soon. Let her know that these are occasional treats for you, not everyday things.

You can mark a separate shelf, cupboard, whatever, and say this is "mommy and daddy's food". Let the kids and AP know that this is your special shelf. She can help herself to anything anywhere else but please leave this shelf alone.

Let AP know that if she wants more junk food than is in the house that she is more than welcome to go to the store and purchase some things for herself. Let her know that if she does do this that you can mark a special shelf for AP only or that she can keep them in her room.

I think that this is a problem that can be solved very easily. [/quote]
