I don't have any family, but I do like to entertain.

When I first started low-carbing, I would have some token bread or potatoes with dinner for the carb eaters. After about a year, I stopped doing it. No one ever seems to mind and if they do, they can eat bread when they get home. There is always plenty of good food to eat.

I applaud all you mothers who are feeding your children so well. I see so much heartache that comes from feeding children crap. Using food as a pacifier or a reward causes so many problems through the life of a child that grows up that way 'and I'm one of those children. Keep food as food and love as love and as much of both as they need to grow into sane and healthy adults.
