If he asks for a quick and easy substitute (like cold leftovers instead of what I cooked), then he can have it. He goes shopping with me and gets to pick out most of the fruits and veggies, choose which fish to get, etc. I let him have as much input as I can. He's an awesome eater so far, and is usually willing to try new foods.
This sounds just like Ellyn Satters "recipe" to raise competent eaters. Well done0
