What about eating issues?
| Fri, 06-10-2005 - 2:24pm |
We have debated sleeping issues to death once again....so what about another one of the issues of childhood....eating and/or not eating?
My kids eat just about anything and have a pretty well rounded diet.

He's a more difficult to please child - especially compared to his brother (which I try hard not to do, certainly not in their earshot).
Don't you know any children whose personalities are less than agreeable a lot of the time (or were at age 3)?

"The majority of people in the world do not want to spend every free minute with their children."
How can you speak for the majority of people in the world? I admit that I need time to myself and with dh occasionally, but I DO basically spend most of my time with my son. He's nine. He's an only child. We like each other, we have fun together. I do know that eventually his peers will win out and he'll hardly be home at all so I'm enjoying the years that I do get to spend lots of time with him.
There is a need for balance, but from now until he's older I'm enjoying my time with him as much as possible...because give it another 5 yrs or so and I'll likely hardly ever see him. The rest of my life is plenty of time to spend my free time doing hobbies and whatever else I want to do. If you don't see it that way, that's your right. But don't speak for the majority of the world.

My 3 year old is whiny and demanding;)
She's also creative, bubbly, hilarious, infuriating, emotional, affectionate, loving, imaginative, obstinate, rebellious, dramatic...I could go on all day!
And she's happy...then unhappy...then happy...then unhappy. Depends what exact moment you catch her!! Overall though I like this age. They are too funny!
So by contesting my statement, does that mean you think the majority of parents do want to spend every free minute with their children, or that neither of us can make a sweeping statement like that?
I maintain that the majority of parents are not as intensely child focused as the posters here are.

I make home made pizza. ;) Actually I've been told I make the best veggie one yet.
In our house I make two kinds-veggie for dh and whatever ds wants, and never have a problem.

Pssst, PNJ ... I maintain that the posters here are not as intensely child focused as the posters here say they are.
Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color. Choosing your socks by their character makes no sense and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable.
