[quote=Anonymous]I don't do it. Our rule is "You don't have to eat it, you just have to sit with us." 90% of the time, big kid (5) will eat most of what's there, even after whining and complaining. If he doesn't eat it, he's not going to starve overnight...and breakfast is always things he likes (fruit, toast, yogurt, etc). I don't feel like discussing food with him and I think that taking the pressure off helps--he knows we're not going to bug him. My kid isn't actually picky--he's just a kid who doesn't jump for joy at roasted cauliflower. I don't know if my method would work with a truly picky eater. Baby (1) is a super great eater. Not sure if I'm just lucky or if he's learning from sitting next to his big brother. [/quote]
