[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK for your child not to have breakfast?  I am tired of fighting. Before DD, 8 year old would at least have spoon of peanut butter; now  nothing. I wouldn't care or that is go overboard if I wasn't afraid it would affect her school work. How much does breakfast impact brainpower at school. Anyone know?[/quote]
I'd like to suggest looking at the bigger picture, OP.

This is a pretty big symptom of major issues. Family and/or school related. Likely a combination of both.[/quote]

no it is not!!  I am a breakfast skipper always have been.  I have three boys, two are famished when they wake up.  My 10 year old is exactly like me in terms of not being hungry in the morning.  I ask him to at least try to eat a banana with PB or a smoothie...a handful of nuts..if not no big deal. He eats healthy the rest of the day and has a snack around 9:30 which is usually a kind bar and a fruit.  My kids eat well, are not picky at all are always willing to try new foods and most importantly happy normal kids.  I hated being forced to eat as a child and refuse to do it to my kids.  Don't worry OP!![/quote]
