[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Drop the rope. I love cooking and trying new foods. The glad to that my kids reject 90% if things I make used to sting. But I have let it go for the sake of our relationship.

Talk to your Ped or a nutritionist and see if they meet the criteria of needing food / eating therapy. If they don’t, just eat colorful, healthy food and let them eat their foods.

My kids eat the same apple slices and raw spinach leaves every night accompanied by cheese and crackers, bagel and cream cheese, noodles and hummus, fish sticks, chicken nuggets, or cheese quesadilla. They eat almost 0 takeout food. They don’t eat mash potatoes or plain rice. One of my kids will sometimes eat corn dogs or plain grilled chicken, neither has ever had a hamburger. [/quote]

Also OP - kids are going through a lot right now with the pandemic. Change is scary and things change slowly. I remember going on a beach house vacation when my son was 4 and packing a weeks worth of protein bars, Annie’s mac and cheese, and baby food pouches. At that time he didn’t eat pizza or quesadilla. If we went to a restaurant, I would need to know they had milkshakes or smoothies. When your kid accepts 1-2 convenience foods it is life changing! Especially if you have a school age kid who mainly lives on peanut butter but has to exist in nut-free environments. [/quote]
