[quote=Anonymous]I would say "yes" and use it as incentive to get her to eat better. If she wants to stay on a vegetarian diet, make it contingent on her eating a balanced diet with enough calories. I would also get her some cookbooks and some books on vegetarianism appropriate to her age level. If she is very picky, she can help figure out what she wants to eat and help plan meals and help prepare meals. She might have more appreciation for the cook, if she doing some cooking herself. If she is underweight, you could try pushing Ensure shakes or ice cream for snacks. It helps put calories in kids that are skinny. [/quote]
