[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's normal for the average 6yo. I have an 8yo and a 5yo. The 8yo is messier than the 5yo - there is always a ring of food around her on the table and floor after dinner. She also takes forever to eat, and mostly likely not neurotypical. And then I have an average 5yo who still prefers eating with his hands over using utensils (even though he is able to). But overall, he is a much tidier eater and finishes in a normal amount of time.[/quote] My son was a S-L-O-W eater up until about 6 months ago. It would take him twice as long as everyone else. The crumbs on the floor don't bother me as much as the food all over his face, hair and clothes. The constant spilling of drinks also irritates me. Not to mention that he thinks its funny that he is a sloppy/messy eater.[/quote]
