[QUOTE="PlainJane, post: 477270, member: 11700"] Thank you all for your support. I was a little concerned that we were crossing the line by going into her home and not respecting her food wishes, as difficult as they may be for our son. A plan is a very good idea. I already told my husband that if his sister and I go shopping, he has to go. Because I don't want the poo to hit the fan in the grocery store without him. Actually this whole issue came up when I was on the phone with her, and told her that the day after we fly in her and I should go shopping, as we would never expect her to take on the burden of the grocery bill for our family (of 4). She then responded by saying what we can not buy. Instead of gettinglosing my temper and yelling at her which I wanted to do, I gave the phone to my husband, and he told her that we are getting what we get, and she will have to be a parent and tell her kids no. He said it was taken care of, but when I got back on the phone with her, it didn't feel resolved, only buried...for now. Ktllc, my husband actually made that point, that he would like to visit often (at least once a year, they are on the west coast, us eat) and if we bail on Christmas, not only will we look bad, but it will not resolve the issue at hand. He wants to nip it in the bud now. I really am glad he's willing to stand up to anyone for his little boy. :) We have dealing with my parents here, not "believing" in autism. My father has told me I caused this. I made this happen. And once even said I wanted this to happen. He's tantrumed infront of them once or twice, and my father's response is to keep telling my son that kind of behavior is "unacceptable". :groooansmileyf: [/QUOTE]
