Can adults share their TS meals with kids? Does this "no sharing" policy, now being enforced, not allow adults to share with adults, or not allow anyone to share?

The past three times we've used the DDP (not during free DDP) we have often shared our TS meals with our children (at non-buffet restaurants) since we get so much food. The last time we ate at Liberty Tree for lunch, our server told us that we could not save our child credits for use later as adult credits, as the system now kept track. But, I told him that was not our intent, as we simply get too much food and don't want to waste it. We were not trying to pull a scam. And there was a perfect example right next to our table as three kids had left their entire meals, barely picked at. The server even looked over there and said, "You're right, there's alot of waste."

Maybe we're not too smart, as we always wind up leaving Disney with extra unused child TS credits, but it just seems wasteful to order kid's meals that won't be fully eaten while we leave part of our dinners on our plates because there's just so much food. Based on what I've been reading it seems that this "no sharing" policy, which is now being enforced, will force us to order child dinners. Is this true?
 
DD5 is a very light eater and left alot of food at every meal. We had a full day at MGM and wanted to do SciFi and Primetime.
We split two adult breakfast platters then went to MGM..
So, at Primetime, we ordered the fried cheese, fried chicken chocolate shake and angel food cake, kids salad, kids meatloaf, kids sunday and a drink on DDP and ordered one shrimp cocktail appetizer (DD loves shrimp) OOP. Waiter advised us we cannot share the plan but then realized I was ordereing an item oop and said then it was ok. There was plenty of food for us and we actually still left tons of fries behind.
For afternoon snack we had a soft pretzel, a churro and popcorn
At Sci Fi, we ordered Spinach Dip, Shrimp pasta, chocolate shake and chocolate tart and kid's salad, hot dog and sunday & drink. We ordered a BLT Soup OOP. AGAIN, way too much food and left alot behind.
We ended up short 1 child's table service later on but we just ordered her an appetizer OOP at a later restaurant
