But My MOM Says...

[Alwaysgreener]

I had a dcb that would not anything at lunch. Or he would choose one item to eat ask for more of it. Dcm had filled out about me sheet on him, she wrote he likes everything accept a few veggies. After a two weeks of him refusing, I told him, I talked to your mom and she said you like .... He started to eat more of his food including veggies.
He would also speak for his sister, we don't like .... And every time he said that then she would not try it. I had to correct him to know that she was the only one that could decide if she liked it. once he stopped she ate and tried more.

I might the odd one here but, parents would tell me that their kids would argue using, "But Ms. Teacher said".

"Mom is in charge at home. Ms Teacher is in charge at school" the first time

"OK thanks" thereafter.

It doesn't bother me unless they're defying my rules in favor of "my mom said.."

Then we all have a talk (me, kid and mom) about rules
