and not having to cook for them (each kid likes something different to eat -- very picky and she caters to it making different food for each of them at meals).

Plu-ease! My mother made the same meal every night of my childhood - it was called take it or leave it! I know there are some people whose taste buds are so over tuned, strong flavors will make their tongues curl up and smoke - but what's the chances all 4 kids have something like that going on?
every time I buy baby food I think of a girlfriend who would not feed her first born anything that wasn't processed, marketed, or boxed as "kid's food" - which means everything was made with 4 main ingredients - sugar, white flour, corn sryup and artifical colors. Then she couldn't understand why her son went through mood swings. Saw her get him to eat a carrot once - he acted like he was being killed and went through a meltdown. I have yet to buy Gerber Graduates as a result, the slope is too slippery.
I was asked on Thanksgiving to talk to a teenager about sex and STDs since she wasn't willing to talk to her parents. So on Friday while everyone else was out buying gifts, I was in Walmart buying condoms! She's a freshman in college - seems like such a frank conversation should have been held sooner. Made for an interesting holiday.
