Question on how I am using TS for DDP

[allbluezoo]

My family of 4 (2AD, 2CH) will be traveling to WDW 7/20-25 and we are on the DDP. One night, we will be using the Kids Nite Out and eating at Epcot using 2 TS credits. Adding in the other TS credits I've already "spent" on other reservations we will have 6 TS credits remaining (2AD and 4CH). My youngest really doesn't eat, I have no idea how he survives sometimes honestly!! Anyway, if I plan 2 more TS restaurants do I have to order something or can just the 2 kids and DH order and I pick off of theirs? I know this sounds just totally tacky but I just can't see paying OOP to order myself something when I know the youngest won't eat whatever we order for him. If it's a big no-no then I won't do it and I'll just grab a snack or CS earlier/later.

Thanks so much!

Hey - I see several options for you. Because they no longer combine kids and adult meals together, I see your dilemma with having extra kids meals.

We have never had a problem with sharing meals, so maybe you and your husband could share, OR you eat the appetizer, share the entree and also share the kids. You are not obligated to order something and plenty of people share. You have a certain amount of credits and it shouldn't matter how many people share it.

I know plenty of people who split one TS meal between their two kids so the same can be done with adults.

If anyone disagrees, let me know but this is what I've always experienced.

Thanks Diane! We often eat this way when we go out "in town" so it just came naturally to me that we would eat that way at Disney too, but I didn't want to make any waves
