I have absolutely had enough of cooking 2,3 or sometimes 4 different meals to feed my fussy family? It's too difficult and time consuming and half the food ends up overcooked or burnt trying to cook too many things at once.
So in organising a positive change I have got as far as doing a list of dinners that have at least a few meal options that they will all eat (although they all have meals they will eat these just aren't the same) that is the problem!! So I know I'm in for plenty of abuse, but I have had enough!
My questions are,
- Do I offer plain buttered toast if dinner is not palatable to them? Or do they go hungry until breakfast?
- Do they get pudding regardless or only if they eat some of what is on offer or only if they eat most/all of their dinner?
Please offer your advice and opinions and share your experiences with me.
P.S. I know I am a complete and utter fool to let this situation continue until my older kids are in their teens, but I have just let things slide and now I'm in big trouble and youngest is 4 years old so really want to make the change :-)
