most mothers are too worried that their child is a fussy eater. he does not eat enough or he does not eat vegetables or fruits or he does not eat at all.
we just want to push d damn chapati down their throat. everything is energy. we as parents need to be very conscious of the way we prepare food,serve and feed our children.we are literally serving our emotions (positive and negative) to them.
1 first of all breath and let all the negativity go.have positivity they will eat.
2 correct ourselves.they learn more by example then verbal instructions.watch what and how you eat.all gadgets off during meal times.minimal or least amount of talking. set a routine. assign a place n time for meals
3 if they r not eating at all,don't force feed or shout /act aggressively.u r doing more damage as u r sending them negative energy which is more harmful than eating a bit less.give it a break.when they r hungry they will eventually eat.
4 patience is the key.give it time.nothing changes in a day.get creative n think of ways of tricking them by making food they like n include good nutrition in that.
5 balance.take it one day at a time.u r d best person to decide for your child.let go of perfection in everything.just do d best u can do that day n eventually keep getting better at it.
6) their hunger is their hunger. you cannot determine their level of hunger. you cannot think that your child should be having 500 ml milk plus snacks plus rotis plus rice plus fruits. sorry, thats NOT how their hunger works.
they know how much they want. respect that decision. give diffrent foods. bring variety in taste, texture and shapes.
7) think nutrition, not that your child should eat.. what ever that might be. i have seen mothers suggesting to feed roti with jam or nutralite and then complaining -- our child does not eat veges !!! hello.. instead of jam give them veges. rserve specials for rare days when child is not well or is super crancky. moderation is the key. not all days for junk.
8) know the diffrent between unconditional love and damage. it takes one spoon of sweet to choose a prefrence for a child.
it stars with YOU. more than fussy eaters  -- we have fussy parents. be strong for your child. think logical rather than from your heart.
