If DCM wants her baby to have grapes or apply chunks with the skin on, she can do it on HER watch when it's HER liability/responsibility.
I'd just continue explaining and re-explaining that if she chokes and dies on your time, it's criminal but if she chokes and dies on mom/dad's time, it's a tragic accident and you aren't willing to take that additional responsibility/liability on. No skin on apples and no grapes sent to daycare....
This is my feeling. I always have parents supply food for the under 1 crowd. I've had a lot of parents who make their own baby foods, etc. this is the first BLW parent. And it's not as if she's sending it in thinking I'll cut it smaller/peel it, because I told her to send it in *exactly* as she wants it offered. Now, I'll use common sense, but I wondered if I was missing something.
