[quote=Anonymous]My suggestion would be to use a timer that both kids can see and watch. The older brother needs to stay at the table as long as the timer is going and the younger sister knows that when the timer goes off everyone (including her) is done eating. She should not need to eat for a lot longer than her brother at every meal if she is actively eating and not playing. Start with a time that is somewhere in the middle of her longer time and his short time and see how it works. It's important to eat together as a family, and that also means brother needs to stay at the table. [/quote]
