[quote=Anonymous] Time for enforcing rules, OP. My 9 year old with special needs is slowly growing out of his feeding disorder, rarely finishes his packed lunch and would love to eat chicken nuggets etc in the cafeteria. However I hate that junk and expect him to eat the healthy food I give him. He comes home at 3pm, eats the remainder for snack, and gets a "special treat" snack if he's already eaten his lunch at school! Knowing his tiny appetite, I also pack light. I'm sure some children would readily eat double what I give him for lunch. So check if quantities are reasonable for his appetite. Then enforce the rule: if your son gets home in time for 3pm snack or dinner, make him first finish his lunch food. No eating junk - it's not the financial cost, it's a health cost. [/quote]
