[QUOTE="buddy, post: 468520, member: 12886"] OH no! the popo are coming and you are gonna get it! It is pretty cute even though he was being a stinker. This whole area is one I have dragged my heels on over the years. I just dont know overall. Obviously what we eat affects us. But I just couldn't add struggling with food every single minute even when he is out of sight to my list. I think many times I may be missing the boat with that though. Afterall he does have an enzyme disorder for processing medications. I never had him tested then to see if other types of enzymes are missing. I asked the endocrinologist (he is in 3rd %ile for ht. and weight but is growing and is healthy)and he thinks he is just a slow grower based on his bone scan etc. Didn't even think medications were the primary cause. His bio dad was a pro. boxer but not tall (could be bad for me). I know for difficult child one thing is for sure...the ups and downs of hunger absolutely affect him. He can't do anything but talk about food when he is hungry. He gets really crabby long before that. I keep lots of snacks at school and remind them to give him something to eat as a first step when he is cranky. He always has food available to him. I know I should investigate more. After having "soft foods only" types of diet changes for oral surgery, Ican't imagine the pain of changing his whole diet. But if it is in his best interest I have to just get over myself maybe. No help, just my confused thoughts. [funny thing...when my son visits my sisters, the first thing they do is shove food at him...they never risk his getting hungry!] [/QUOTE]
