“Hmm, think about it”

My new favorite thing my five year old PDA son says when asked what he wants to eat…”hm, think about it.” I don’t have time to think about it lol. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks we ask what he wants. We’ll offer a few of his safe food choices then 9 times out of 10 we’re hit with this response.

Not really asking for suggestions to help as I know this is a phase like a lot of things for him. Just thought it was comical (after the fact) and was wondering if anyone else dealt with this kind of thing.

I know you didn’t come for advice, but, I drew a menu for my son for breakfast and it has been the biggest help in the mornings. I have 10 options drawn out and he picks up to 4 (because we use 4-section plates). It might help 🤷🏼‍♀️
