let them know that you will do your best to include their fav foods as long as they are willing to eat (at least some of) whatever else is prepared.

One person SHOULD NOT rule the menu in a household. I'm sure it is frustrating, but compromise will make life a whole lot easlier for all of you :-)
Good luck.
