One of my grandchildren, who I love dearly, has reverted to eating with her fingers. This seems to have happened during lockdown. We looked after her as a baby and young child and she was able to use a spoon and fork and had started to use a knife. I am not just talking about finger food I mean dinners as well. She will use a spoon for baked beans or other liquid food! But not for roast potatoes, meat, veg etc. It is becoming a bone of contention between us, she is 8 years old. My son seems to think it is okay....AIBU? Should I just leave it be?
All my gk's had terrible table manners, messy and not using cutlery. Now they’re fine, it’s just a phase. Don’t get stressed, life is too short to get stressed over silly stuff.
