What to do when your kid says “yuck”
Ooooffff! It’s like a kick to the gut when your kiddo gets to the dining table and pronounces your meal “yucky”. Take a breath. Not every meal is going to please every person, but having a family rule like “don’t yuck anyone’s yum” can be helpful.
One way to get ahead of the “yuck” is serving deconstructed meals family style. Offer parts of a meal in separate dishes and allow folks to serve themselves. It can go a long way in reducing dinnertime protests. Be sure that at least 1-2 parts of the deconstructed meal is a preferred food for your picky eater.
Next week I’ll tell you the story of a good friend who was a master at “considerate without catering”.
