Dinner issues

Debs75

Having on going issues with our son and eating.

His 14yrs old and refuses to eat any meals with us...he refuses sandwich or dinners

At school..he wants to eat in his bedroom alone....this is causing major issues at home

We tried saying you could set away from us...in the kitchen or up the table...but no he

Will not have any off it.....

He seems to want to totally isolated himself....causing major issue's here..

  • So from what you have described your son is not solely responsible for the conflict. As Aoch says, eating alone isn't (necessarily) a problem. It doesn't fit with what your husband wants. That leaves you in the middle wanting to find a way to resolve the conflict. So it's not an answer to your problem, but clarifying that the problem and responsibility does not sit with one individual member of the household. Sounds very stressful for you all.
