[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The "reward" for eating is not being hungry. You aren't a short-order cook. When you stop acting like one, your son will realize he either eats what's there or is hungry. Natural consequences are what worked before people starting overthinking how to raise kids. He won't starve. Letting him be picky will disadvantage him in the long run. I was very picky as a child and was catered to; it took years as an adult with adventurous friends and husband to get me to taste and actually like most foods. Don't do this to yourself or him. "Here's what's for dinner -- If you're hungry, you'll eat it." <---Memorize this. Good luck.[/quote] Laughably off base. This works fine for a normal kid, but not a picky eater. Congrats on winning the lottery.[/quote] The child will not be "picky" if these steps are followed. I should know, having been a "picky eater" myself. But don't let me interrupt the martyr routine you have going on.[/quote]
