[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old is the same. She won't gag though and she willingly tries new foods, she just doesn't like them. She loves carbs and cheese (who can blame her) but beyond that it's really really difficult. I've stopped fighting and just keep encouraging and praising trying new foods. But it limits restaurants and makes social gatherings difficult. At a Mexican restaurant I told her I can ask for plain tortillas or she could just eat chips for dinner and that doesn't even work. She would rather cry herself to sleep from hunger than eat what I made for dinner. And I deconstruct a lot of it so people can choose their own veggie, sauces, toppings etc. She helps make the weekly menu and helps me cook, and STILL doesn't eat it. [/quote]
