Parents of gluten‑free kids — what was the hardest part in the first month?

Hi everyone,
I’m a parent of a gluten‑free kid and I remember the first month feeling like a blur of overwhelm — school, parties, cross‑contamination, lunchboxes, label reading… all of it.

I’m trying to understand what other families found the hardest in those early weeks.
If you’re comfortable sharing, what was the part that really threw you?
Was it:

• the emotional side?
• the pantry reset?
• eating out?
• school?
• social stuff?
• something else entirely?

I’m collecting experiences so I can better support other parents going through the same thing.

Any insight is appreciated. 💛
