[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm 19:39. Contrary to popular opinion, yes, there are children who will go into FAILURE TO THRIVE, through not eating enough. The idea that no child will allow himself to starve is a damageable myth. My son was in failure to thrive as a toddler, and put on a high calorie diet, and is now again in the 2nd percentile as a tween, which is of great concern to his pediatrician. [/quote] There are FTT kids, but yelling at them to eat is not the solution. [/quote] If you read my post at 19:39, you'll see what we implemented. No one has ever said yelling was OK. But some kids will really challenge you in that regard, and it's very difficult for someone who hasn't gone through it do understand how bad it can be. [/quote]
