[quote=Anonymous]At home, is she "overeating" the kinds of foods that she is served and that the family is eating? Or is she raiding the cabinets at all hours? I think kids this age understand healthy and not healthy, but it can still be a little confusing to understand why they can't have more of the meal that is offered if they feel hungry. For example, my DD will eat all the french fries in sight, when given the chance. So we limit the occasions when we have them - but when we do, we don't police what she's eating, since everyone else is eating fries and there's enough for everyone. If I'm eating fries while also telling her to slow down, etc etc, that's confusing for her. [/quote]
