Chiefgroover Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I think it's letting kids eat whatever they want that causes most of the problems. So many kids nowadays won't eat this or that. The amount of times I've heard things "He'll only eat crisps and biscuits" is ridiculous. Weak parents make a rod for their own back by letting the kid decide what he's having for dinner. I know what you mean though. My Jemma used to be a fussy eater and wouldn't eat lots of things. We tried to encourage her to eat them but didn't put her under pressure if she wouldn't. What we didn't do was let her leave most of her meal and then be eating sweets and crisps and hour later. She eats fine now, all our kids do. To be honest all our 3 kids are less fussy eaters than I am - but they didn't grow up with my mother force-feeding them sprouts and liver I was referring to the ridiculous portions they get handed, adult meals for 6 yr olds, stretched stomach means hunger pangs, hence over eating. Small portions of high quality being the way to go, with junk not bought or served. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECK Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Making kids finish their dinner and clean the plate starts off some very bad habbits, which can grow into killer obsessions. yea how many times have you told the kids "no going out or toys if you dont eat all youre dinner" makes you think eh? still have no sympathy the parents saw this coming and done nothing till 400 lbs TOSSERS that girls life is almost ruined i hope someone helps her and force feeds the parents till there that size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
