[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My best takeaway from "Bringing up Bebe" (an account of an American raising children in Paris) is that the only snack children have there is their "gouter." Served at about four, it's the only non-meal food French children expect. I am raising my daughter similarly and she's a healthy weight, growing well, and happy. [/quote] Are you sending your child to public school in America or planning to? If so, teaching her to eat slowly at meals, savor her food, and avoid snacking may not be in her favor. :cry: [/quote] Yes, well, my son eats a snack a few times a day and has the most varied, healthiest diet of any kid I know. He is also at an incredibly healthy weight. I, on the other hand, never snack because it is not my thing, but I didn't push my way son my kid because he has different needs. Choosing to follow some random book instead of looking at the actual child and her needs is beyond stupid. But hey, you sound so continental! [/quote]
