[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have 2 1/2 yr old twins and I get this kind of behavior also. It is about control with them. I give them a couple of choices, if they don't want it then they can go hungry for a while. I also find that they want what I have on my plate so sometimes that's a way to get them to eat. Mostly I think what you're describing is a natural function of this age. Good luck, it can definitely be trying![/quote] This. Give them a few choices. If they decide they won't eat it, mealtime is over. When they are hungry later, tell them that they can have the rest of their lunch but that's the only choice. Eventually they will understand that they need to eat what is given. [/quote]
