[quote=Anonymous]It’s one thing to take a firm stand and not cater to pickiness. BUT, you have a child who’s growth seems to be impaired by not eating enough, so I think you’re well beyond the advice to not give into pickiness. You need to figure out what is going on—is it some kind of eating disorder or food aversion? Go to a doctor and figure it out. Beyond that, I’m not sure why you wouldn’t cater to her preferences at this point. Why can’t you give her some beans or chicken or lentils or Oreo yogurt or more vegetables? If she will consistently eat that, give it to her. Are you winning some parenting prize by remaining firm and watching her starve bc she won’t eat the ribs you put in front of her?[/quote]
