[quote=Anonymous]My 9 year old can make himself a PB sandwich as an alternative for dinner if he wants after he has tried everything. When he was younger, I always made sure there was one or two things he liked. My 6 year old is an adventurous eater, will try anything, and likes most things, so an alternate dinner has never been an issue. My picky eater continues to expand his variety of food and willingness to try new things with an open mind, so we try to be patient with him versus punitive. I am more like my younger child, so I don't relate to the pickiness, but I do think it is legitimate and I wouldn't want someone forcing me to eat a lot of something I didn't like. Growing up, I had one picky sibling among a few adventurous eaters who did outgrow it. [/quote]
