child vs adult TS credit problem

[ortegah]

Okay so I have three kids. They are 14, 11 and almost 7. The 11 yr old is a chicken strip/pizza kind of girl while the 7 yr old is the steak and potatoes and veggies girl. So do you think they'll have a problem if my 11 yr old orders what the 7 yr old really wants and the 7 yr old orders what the 11 yr old wants and they just switch when the food comes? I mean I don't see what the harm would be.

What do you think?

I wouldn't see a problem with that at all.

Ok, that's what I thought but I just wanted to make sure that they wouldn't make a stink about it. My 11 yr old just cringed the other night when she looked at the menus. She kept saying, "But can't I just order the pizza or chicken strips? I don't like steak that much." Meanwhile my youngest thinks vegetables and steak are just the best thing ever!

Isn't it great when they WANT to eat veggies!!!

My suggestion: Let one person in your party place the entire order to avoid confusion. Your server shouldn't care who eats the food, as long as the total order has the correct # of adult entrees and child entrees. Once the food comes, just switch the plates.

Have fun planning.

Yeah that's what we normally do anyhow. I tend to order for everyone once they've told me what they want

My first time adult son and soon to be adult daughter are like that. We did just that last week everywhere...it was always funny to see them "argue" over who was ordering off the adult menu. Servers didn't care and why should they. We had no problems anywhere.

Well I'm glad it all worked out. I'm sure ours will too
