[QUOTE="bystander, post: 42692, member: 3614"] Thanks for your replies so far - When I was little - I had trouble eating breakfast too. Mostly, it was anxiety related. It got to the point where my mother gave up and I just didn't eat. My parents weren't breakfast people anyway. But my husband was/is; and looking back, I remember that not having that nutrition in my stomach was worse than having to eat actually. In all honesty, I think my son would not eat if I left it to him to get a quicky at at school. In fact, I just last week had trouble with him coming home with only about 10% of his lunch eaten for the whole week. I knew it's because he's goofing off. So, we cured that by telling him no snacks after school; left-over lunch for dinner; and no cookies for dessert. That worked, because he challenged me on it one day. It was the inability to get his Oreoes after dinner that tid the trick I think. So, perhaps CC's idea of giving him X amount of time to finish and then he can have his leftover b'fast for an afternoon snack [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif[/img] could very potentially do the trick.
