[quote=Anonymous]"I doubt the first poster's child is as much of an outlier as you think. I suspect a lot of "picky eating" is actual food/texture aversion, and so people focus on the wrong aspect ("the child is being defiant," or "the child is being stubborn"), and the problem really isn't a battle of wills, but a need to help condition the child to new food textures/tastes. " Sweet Jesus - I don't know that I've ever seen a more ridiculous statement in my life. You think the kid who lives in a trailer has "texture aversion". It is a privilege to refuse foods. Only people who have too much of it do it. Tell your child to eat it or not. Do not, I repeat DO NOT indulge this nonsense and all your child to control your home. It is not fair to you, it is not fair to your family, it is not fair to your child. [/quote]
