Looking at a menu ahead of time also helps us adults make healthy choices!

I want to take my family out to a restaurant soon. Hopefully, I can help my child behave by deciding what we should eat in advance.

Yes! It’s always a balance, isn’t it?

Yes! Family travel is challenging enough – I like to remove any barriers I can.

The struggle is real! But I am grateful to restaurants for usually having mac n cheese on the menu—it means my kids will at least eat *something* haha!

Thanks, Jenni – parents rarely get the outside support your comment offered, especially in high-stress situations like eating out at a restaurant. On the contrary, it sometimes feels as if everyone in the room is finding something to judge! Thanks for your thoughtful note.

I don’t have kids, but I often see the struggle it is to get my niece to eat things. Her mom almost always has some additional snacks that she knows she’ll eat just in case she can’t get her to eat whatever we’re having for dinner. Sometimes all she wants is blueberries, other times she’ll eat a bit of everything. I would also feel zero effs about the occasional order of french fries as a meal as long as she’s eating something and it’s balanced out with the rest of her meals. Sounds like you’re doing a great job encouraging them without stressing them out!

It seems to always be a challenge to get kids to order anything other than Mac n Cheese at a restaurant, but I love your suggestion on taking “adventure bites” as well!
