18 Yr Old

[hannah40]

Do you all cook for your 18yr olds? Mine is so fussy and my husband and I try all sorts of food and she will moan and say it looks disgusting or I’m not eating that.
I try new recipes and cook fresh.
I cook a roast which she likes and salad and fish cakes and tacos or stir fry other than that she refuses to eat meals.
Then shouts at us and tells us we’re starving her.
We’re an awful family and parents that won’t cook for her.
What can I do to resolve this

People don't just learn to cook overnight. How about trying to make a meal plan for the week with her and then both go grocery shopping together? Then let her help you prepare the meals. You are not her servant but if after offering to do these things with her, she is still acting like a child, remind her she is an adult, and you no longer legally need to look after her, so if she's not happy you will help her find a new place to live -that should shake her up a bit.

Think it's all been said already. At 18 I was married with a baby so had to learn fast.
