What about eating issues?

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.

I guess it depends upon how much stress watching people eat when you are hungry causes.

It's another "trying to teach a pig to sing" subject. It frustrates the teacher and annoys the pig.

Right. So. In other words. You totally agree with me on the balance thing. Kids won't necessarily choose that if left up to their own devices.

"I do see meeting their likes as a challenge that I don't mind facing."


I have enough challenges that are much more interesting.

I love all tastes and textures (other than Brussels sprouts....)

You say that as if it matters.

Then you just can't understand being biologically predisposed to NOT liking all tastes and textures then, can you?


Kinda like your response to sun-and-sand-mom.

If the benefit to your kids outweighs the inconvenience to you (and your children), go for it.
