[quote=Anonymous]I'm a NP, I wanted to ask about your kids not having to ask for food in the house. My kids are 7 and 9 and still have to ask. We have healthy food for the most part, but my son will easily knock back 2-3 bars and then not be hungry for meals. He would constantly snack if we let him because he tends to eat when he's bored. Is it really a thing to let them eat whatever they want whenever they want without asking? Why is doing otherwise setting them up for an eating disorder? It's not that we always say no unless it's within a 3 meal a day structure, but if he asks for a snack 30 minutes after a hearty breakfast I'm likely to say no. Or I'll offer vegetables that he likes and he rejects them. [/quote]
