I have 3 kids - all boys! Ages 7, 5 and 2. I would love for them to be all paleo/primal, but since dad isn't, its hard to enforce it. My 2 year old eats very little grains since he's with me most of the day and I make dinners (without grains). My 7 year old occasionally has bread in the form of sprouted bread but my 5 year old has the most grains but I hope to change that more and more.

I have a 5 year old and a 8 month old. We don't do separate meals in this house. It was one of the things my husband and I decided a long time ago. So we are all Paleo about 90% of the time. I guess the 8 month old isn't really Paleo though as he gets mostly mama milk and formula. :giggle:
Our biggest Paleo struggles are the influences from the outside world. Every now and then I want a good cinnamon roll, or pizza or something quick and easy. That is where we struggle.

I have 10 children. 7 my biological children, 3 are my sig other's. Two girls, 22. Then 8 boys, 20, 18, 17, 15, 13, 12, 11, and 8.
Those that live with us still are merging onto the Paleo highway with us. We are currently 100% breakfast and dinner. For the kids lunch is almost there. It has been a learning curve for us all...but for the better!!!

I have 4 children, aged 15, 9, 8 and 2. They mostly don't eat Paleo. I have tried to stop buying bread etc but I only lasted a week. It was so much harder and more expensive :-( I'd love to try again soon, but would need to get my husband on board (he's not Paleo either).
Plus they all eat most of their meals outside the home anyway at school / nursery. It feels like a losing battle :-(

If you're looking for prepackaged Paleo items, I suggest Rickaroons: www.rickaroons.com/Wholly Bites: www.whollybites.com/Steve's Paleo Goods: www.stevespaleogoods.com/And if you have a Whole Foods (or check the store listing on the site for other stores that have their products) next to you.

I have a 23 year old son. When he was growing up he thought I ate weird food. I was always cooking separate meals, now that's he's on his own he eats healthy and mostly Paleo. See they really do listen and pay attention even when you don't think I do! Now he calls me for recipes and supplement recommendations.

I have two daughters, 5 and 3. They're super active and smart, hence I am often exhausted!  The older one is a pretty picky eater. DH is far from Paleo but agrees to mostly buy GF items for the girls. I can't even imagine trying to convert him although he really needs it - he's just not interested in any way. :-( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Jen not sure if you saw this reply to someone else on the thread, but these same links may help you. Hugs! I know it can be hard when spouses are not on board. My husband and I joke that we are not on the "same page", but we're in the "same chapter".
