Picky Eaters

The family meal is a great opportunity to model healthy eating habits. Consider serving family style, or allowing your picky eater to choose between 2 items and serve themselves. It's always ok to expect a "no, thank you" bite. And remember the "division of labor" when it comes to mealtime - you are responsible for when, where, and what is offered, but only your child can decide how much to eat! Resist the temptation to become a short order cook. Picky Eaters
