[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks my kids are 3 and 5. They are too young g to be trusted to get their own food. I want to know what they are eating and foster controlled independence. [/quote] No they are not you are lazy Teach them Put some snacks in a drawer they can reach show them some healthy snacks then explain the rules one snack after breakfast one after lunch [/quote] Thanks! OP here. This is a good idea. I want to foster independence, but also keep an eye on how much they are actually having. I need them to eat lunch/dinner and not have unlimited snacks. I wish there was a way for them get only one snack per day without me having to monitor it. Thanks everyone! My mother in law thinks this is a me problem and maybe she is right…. Arghhhh[/quote]
