[QUOTE="butterflydreams, post: 184465"] Oh I have gone through this over and over again with difficult child. It doesn't matter if you say this is yours and this is mine and this is your sisters. He will eat it all if given the chance. I have gotten where I won't buy the snacks and stuff like that to have on hand, because they would all be gone. I buy now on a as-needed basis. I buy lots of apples every weekend, being sure to keep kinds in there of what I know difficult child would eat. Even things like string cheese, he won't just eat one, he will eat 2 or 3. When I would buy go-gurt. He wouldn't eat just one, he would eat 2 or 3 or more. Before he had gone into Residential Treatment Center (RTC), this had been brought up with his counselor how to handle it because easy child gets so frustrated with it too. easy child had made cupcakes and difficult child turned around and ate 4 of them at once. The counselor said that we should divide up and lets say you have 12 cupcakes, there are 3 of us that means 4 cupcakes for each person. difficult child's share is 4 cupcakes, you can have 1 cupcake a day for 4 days, but if difficult child eats 2 in one day, then he only has 2 left. I have not had a chance to try this out yet, because difficult child went into Residential Treatment Center (RTC), but I will be trying out after he comes home. Right now, even when he is on visits home, it's really not an issue because he isn't there long enough. [/QUOTE]
