[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 566645, member: 3419"] I agree, you can't give difficult child/easy child that much control. And that if someone brings junk food into the house, it disappears. I hate to throw away food, but I hate to see people eat it, even more. You'll get used to it. So will they. YOU are the mom. You're in charge. Period. Giving her minor choices is one thing. Giving her control is completely different. My difficult child yelled and screamed for a yr when we transitioned to gluten-free and milk-free. Then I realized that he was eating anything and everything in the house--incl the "healthy" stuff, because he's a teen, and teens tend to eat anything. So I waited, and eventually, the yelling stopped. It took awhile. It also took awhile for me not to yell back. I had to just listen to him rant, then shrug my shoulders and walk away. Just stick to your guns. [/QUOTE]
