Yes. This is a time when my parents would have said, "Do you want to eat, or do you want to get smacked?"
I accommodate for the special diets in my family (some low-carb items for the diabetics, onions/peppers on the side where possible for those who can't stomach them, and caffine-free drinks for my sister who gets heart flutters). But that's it. If you or your kid is a picky eater, you better bring your own food or stay home. I also don't allow children (or anyone, really) to mouth off in my home. I have no problem telling a relative's kid to watch his/her mouth. Luckily, my friends' children do not act this way.
Ree-Xi you have been more than gracious to this point (more than I would have been). I'm not sure if you have the kind of relationship with your sister where you can just say, "DO A BETTER JOB RAISING YOUR KIDS!" If not, maybe just try to limit the amount of times you invite her family over to your house. Family gatherings are supposed to be fun, not frustrating.
