[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 536981, member: 14356"] It does get better - slowly and with a lot of effort and coaching. My difficult child and my easy child are both messy eaters - although difficult child is soooo much better now. That's been in the past couple of years though. easy child still has 'pompeii' (LOL - that was funny!) around her plate after a meal because of her poor motor skills but I'm hopeful that it will get better. That said, I'm not spewing food everywhere but I still dribble from my glass the odd time and generally spill something off my fork onto my shirt and almost every meal (I'm 42!) as does my mother who is 68. So I think it gets better but not great! Just last week we had dinner at a friends place and I dropped food on her pristine white tablecloth twice! Ugh! Felt pretty stupid about it but it is what it is... [/QUOTE]
