[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does "hand fed" mean?[/quote] Are you serious???? :shock: Some cultures eat with their hands, you know? :roll:[/quote] Ummmm, yes. :roll: I'm not the PP but I'm wondering what "hand fed" means [i]in this context[/i]? Are they feeding the baby table food or something? I find it hard to believe that Norweigians think that eating without utensils is so abusive that they would take someone's children away for doing so.[/quote] It's common in South Asian cultures for a mother or nanny to feed children by hand, as in they might take a small amount of rice and lentils or whatever dish in their right hand and feed it to the child. Usually the strange part to people who are not used to this is that even children who are old enough to eat on their own using utensils might be fed this way.[/quote]
