AHHHHHHHH! Anyone else have a finicky child? If so how have you gotten them to try new things? I am at my wit's end.
We have tried:
taking him to the store to choose what he might like
Going through cookbooks
going through the net
forced watching of the food network
Forcing does not work. He will just skip eating. He does this at friends' houses as well. We recently found out that after spending a couple nights with a friend he chose to eat only one meal out of 6. The family does not allow junk food so he was not eating at all.
If I let him get away with it he would only eat plain noodles, plain rice, ramen (the 25 cent kind), plain potatoes, cheddar cheese and strawberries. Anyone else see a trend?
Any thoughts?
