[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I make what I make and our kids eat it or they don't. At the age of five she has no access to other food, unlike teens. How can she even get the idea that only hot dogs would be available? Someone had to keep buying them again and again until consuming them daily became part of the established food culture of the home. I think it is a mistake to try to force kids to eat things because the conflict makes them the center of attention. They should be free to choose what they eat but not what I provide. [/quote]
You are such an awesome parent! Are you kids all failure to thrive and have ulcers in their stomachs at 7 months old and they have reflux coming up their esophagus below the level of 2 pH 140 times in 21 hours?
Regardless, you are so awesome![/quote]

Yes, she is awesome!  I'm sure it's because my parenting skills are so lame, unlike hers, that my kid has thrown up at the table because the smell of certain food made them so nauseated - food that they liked to eat previously.  If only I'd been a better parent I wouldn't have had to spent thousands and thousands of dollars on therapists. I'm sure it was just me rewarding their efforts to be the center of attention.  Oh, how I [i]aspire [/i]to be a parent like the PP is. [/quote]
