Dear Anita,

It is signify daily basis honey replied to me as your son. I’m so much electrified and thrilled with you most of the time. People like you Anita  ain’t common on earth dear mommy.

following regarding young children who are picky eaters (“so selective”), the following quoted information reads very good to me. Let me know if it is clear to you, and if you would like me to repeat any of it in my own words:

“1. “If your child isn’t hungry, don’t force a meal or snack… don’t bribe or force your child to eat certain foods or clean his or her plate. This might only ignite- or reinforce- a power struggle over food. In addition, your child might come to associate mealtime with anxiety and frustration…”

My son Christopher Agoth Gregory,  has a mean mealtime that he had known to eat on it.  He is a smart boy who doesn’t like dirty himself when he is eating. Sometimes when he is not happy with the meal he could tell me let go to town to buy other foods in the restaurant to eat. I cook for him most of the times or we go to cafeteria for our dinner. I’m trying all my best I can to makes sure he is happy and fit.

Serve small portions to avoid overwhelming your child and give him or her the opportunity to independently ask for more.” yes I do mommy,  in fact I become like baby sitting now. Raising a child is a very great task,,,,,  is like during the lamb pain of a woman she is delivering a baby,,,,  it is always 50 – 50 between life and death.

The same thing of raising a child when we ain’t keen enough he or she could come out as a failure or a criminal record. ” this is where I’m praying all the times for my child to be a responsible son in the near future,  a son that was left to his father when he doesn’t know anything but the father struggle to raise him. A son that would be of find and she said my son Christopher Agoth Gregory,  I was wrong and mislead by my M1,, my target will come to it pinnacles of the sewing needle.

2. Stick to the Routine- Serve meals and snacks at about the same times every day… You can provide milk or 100  percent juice with the food, but offer water in between meals and snacks. Allowing your child to fill up on juice, milk or snacks throughout the day might decrease his appetite for meals.” Wonderful this is where I’m very serious,  I don’t wait him to tell me dad I’m hungry,  I makes sure things are in accurate prescription of the African time. ” meanwhile he is eating he has water on the table and juice…

3. Be patient with new foods- Young children often touch or smell new foods, and might even put tiny bits in their mouths and then take them back out again. Your child might need repeated exposure to a new food before he takes the first bite.. Serve new foods along with your child’s favorite foods. Keep serving your child healthy choices until they become familiar and preferred.” Affirmatively this is where I apply my best to be patient enough and try to see which other things does he want. And try to provide to him.

4. Encourage your child to stay at the table for the designated mealtime- even if he doesn’t eat. “Exactly he is very good at that,  when it is meal time,,,,,,  he could stay on the table and be happy with everyone.

5. “Make it fun- Serve broccoli and other veggies with a favorite dip or sauce. Cut foods into various shapes.. Serve a variety of brightly colored foods.” Christopher,  knows very well I’m very good at making fun with him mommy. We could joke and do more things.

6. Recruit your child’s help-  At the grocery store, ask your child to help you select fruits, vegetables and other healthy foods. Don’t buy anything that you don’t want your child to eat. At home, encourage your child to help you rinse veggies, stir batter or set the table. ” I’m focusing on his daily things he need always. I give him different things.

7. Set a good example-  If you eat a variety of healthy foods, you child is more likely to follow suit. ” I do that mommy,  in fact I’m very selective in eating either too.

8. Be creative- Add chopped broccoli or green peppers to spaghetti sauce, top cereal with fruit slices, or mix grated zucchini and carrots into casseroles and soups.” explain me more about the above sentence, what is broccoli or green peppers to spaghetti sauce, top cereal with fruits slice, or mix grate zucchinis?  Where could I get them?  I love them by way,  I guess the makes food more delicious.

9. Minimize distractions- Turn off the television and other electronic gadgets during meals. This will help your child focus on eating. Keep in mind that television advertising might also encourage your child to desire sugary or less nutritious foods. Absolutely television is ever off,  when he is eating.

10. Don’t offer dessert as a reward- withholding dessert sends the message that dessert is the best food, which might only increase your child’s desire for sweets. You might select one or two nights a week as dessert nights, and skip dessert the rest of the week- or redefine dessert as fruit, yogurt or other healthy choices. Point taken well and put into consideration as well as practice too.

If you’re concerned that picky eating is compromising your child’s growth and development, consult your child’s doctor… remember that your child’s eating habits won’t likely change overnight- but the small steps you take each day can help promote a lifetime of healthy eating.” 😂 😂 haha okay thanks for more experience and nice directive,,,,  I’m learning day by day.

Thank you Anita.

Good night there.

Be blessed.
