[quote=Anonymous]I have a non-breakfast eating teen and at first I was really concerned but 1) food battles are no good for teens, especially, 2) he should eat when he is hungry, and 3) there does seem to be more recent research casting doubt on the "you must eat breakfast" mantra. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/john-berardi-phd/breakfast-health_b_4436439.html At any rate, my teen eats at snack around 10:00, or at lunch, is a very healthy weight, and definitely a good student. I do insist that he sit down for family dinner 3 or 4 times a week, but again, I don't make my kids eat if they aren't hungry (which is rarely the case by dinner). [/quote]
