I haven't read the thread, so I am answering to the first post. And apologizing if I am repeating what was already said.
Couple of things: There are certain foods that you would only truly, no Truly enjoy if you would eat them the way they were created to eat. Shish Kebobs one of those foods. IMHO they absolutely must be eaten from the skewer.
Another point, never, Never eat spaghetti with the spoon and fork, at least not in Italian place, people will quietly laugh at you, or make fun. Big no-no. You Only eat spaghetti with the fork.
Now having said all of that, I have the hardest time to have my younger son to hold fork, or spoon, or knife for that matter properly. Every day we eat, and every day I have to tell him 10 times to hold the spoon/fork right, a minute latter he is holding it wrong. I don’t know what to do with him. He is 11. Any suggestions?
