[QUOTE="Andy, post: 432418, member: 5096"] I agree with InsaneCdn's approach. Maybe taking it to an even more personal level of, ""the doctor has suggested that J may have some food sensitivities, and would like us to try XXX. I hate to add extra trouble for you so I'd like to provide the food items each day/week. Do you have any suggestions of foods/snacks I can add to this list? Would you be able to tell me in a weeks time (or two) if you notice any changes, positive or negative, in J's behaviour?" Maybe address the fact that maybe HER kids would want what J is getting? How can the two of you work together to make sure that is not an issue? Are you willing to provide enough of the snack for all the kids? Would she be willing to sit down and help you come up with some recipies for meals that you can use at home and maybe she would be willing to make while J is there? I would address it as, "I have a challenge that I would like you to help me with. J's doctor has suggested that we cut back on YYY, and add more XXX to his diet. I think I have a start with this list (list of do's and don'Tourette's Syndrome) but wondering if you can help me add to it. Do you have ideas of foods we can try that will fit into the new diet? How will this interfer with while he is here at your home? Can I help by providing snacks that fit in this list for all the kids? Would you be willing to have foods at meal time that will work?" "We should know in a couple of weeks if this new diet is helping him. He should feel better and be easier to be around........" I hope she is willing - I know I took caffene out of the house because one of difficult child's friends would overdo it. I also try to watch what is out and available when he is over. [/QUOTE]
