I just dont understand why dinner has to be an issue

Were at a function for school a dinner, they supplied pizza and fruit and veggies, my kids along with all the other 50 kids here wolfed it all down, not sd6 she's whiney and pouting pretty much dragging down the mood of the whole night for our whole table, its too spicy, its too sour ( canteloupe) my stomach hurts blah blah freaking blah, I am staying out of it, my so is getting mad telling her just eat. It's so frustrating why why can she just not eat the freaking pizza and enjoy it like all the other kids? can she not just go to s function even as low key as this and not complain? Just had to vent

Thats when you just say that is all you get tonight, if she doesnt finsh she gets it later when she is hungry, or for breakfest. We do this with SD3 &5 they have learned to shut up and eat. But we also only tell them once and dont respond at all to the bitching they do...its not like we feed them liver and onions, it is good food healthy food.

Yep, she won't get any kind of snack tonight, my so already told her that. He's pretty good at the discipline with her, he cannot stand that she has that holier than thou attitude of bm. I have backed of even talking to her if I can help it since her whole "im scared if sm" crying bit a few weeks ago. Even when I'm here myself with her, I pretty much ignore her unless she's in danger of hurting herself. to which I feel bad about but I'm sick of the dirty looks and eye rolling I get.
