[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP here. I would do this if he was two but he is 9... It's getting ridiculous. It truly is not a battle. No yelling, no crying, etc. he just eats slow if it's not something he loves. He gets fruit after as he loves fruit but not eating the simplest of foods is not an option in our house[/quote] I don't think you should frame it in your mind as 'not eating the simplest foods'. I think you should frame it as 'not eating food he doesn't like but I do' so at least you are on the same page. It's not just a 'simple food' if he dislikes it so much he'd rather sit there for an hour than eat it. And, I agree with you about not making him something special (but also including something he likes as part of the meal).[/quote]
