Ahh, i nearly laughed, and then cried. I have two boys too. I think my eldest (4) is soooo used to complaining about his dinner that he just forgets that sometimes he likes it, and rarely is it disgusting! But it's almost part of the routine. It makes me even more chuffed when he does burst out with "thank you mum, i love your meatballs (or whatever)". I feel i must have earned it!

It is usually a smoother meal time if he has chosen all, or part, of the meal.
