I work Mon - Fri from 8 - 4:30 and my Son stays with my parents and he eats well with her, yet on the weekend he does not eat the same amount with me, It is so frustrating that I feel he is so used to her and listens to her more. I try to give the same cereal the way my mother does and offer food the same times too. Any other person go through the same thing ?

my children all 8 of them go through the phase of wanting to play more than take time to sit and eat a proper meal. relax and know that he will not starve. just be consistent. continue to offer meals at a regular time each day. the routine is important and so is nutrition.
some times my kids would eat seconds or more at breakfast and not eat the rest of the day.
my doctor said it is ok as long they're getting what they need by the end of the day. make sure he's drinking lots of water.
as for the behavior your child is spending most of his waking hours away from u.
it takes time to train a child. again a consistent routine is important for your success.
be patient it will come for you too. you don't have to try to things like your mom. do things your own way and soon your child will get used it.
