Frank is threatening to have a meltdown because he doesn’t care for his lunch choices. I’m thinking of putting the whole family on Austerity Rations as a Learning Experience.
Ah, yes... Austerity Rations. I believe my mother invented them when we began to moan and whine about what was put on the table. Which was actually a lot, considering the amount of income compared to the number of people who were consuming them. Yes, it was indeed, a Learning Experience.
Maybe give him some cash at the beginning of the week and say, "You can pick your own lunch menus for the whole week as long as it doesn't cost more than that." Then again, he might be good at that. If you do the actual purchasing it could be more work for you.
