[quote=Anonymous]Okay, my almost 3 year old has been refusing to eat at the table. For example, I have offered varieties of food at each meal, some carbs (that she sometimes likes it, sometimes does not like), veggies (that she hates) and meat (used to eat a bit, now refuses to eat) and a glass of milk (that she hates). She may only eat some carbs, and then she refuses to eat further. And, she is still hungry, and she won't let me getting her off the booster seat. If I ask her to eat other food, she keeps saying "yucky", "no", or cries in tears. I cannot get her go hungry before bedtime, so I cut her some apples (she likes), but I still have to give her some more carbs (like bread, crackers) to eat or else she could not sleep through the night. In the past, she has drank full bottle of water before bedtime because she was still hungry, and then she wet her bed (diaper too full) and wake up whining a few times the whole night.

I hate it that at the end, I still have to give it to her at almost every meals (especially dinnertime). I have tried different varieties of food, but if she does not want to eat, even I force her, she will spit out with tears. To kid like that, should I just let her go hunger for days and crying in tears without giving in to give her extra food after dinnertime? She is so stubborn and rigid.[/quote]
