[QUOTE="totoro, post: 199550, member: 3155"] We have a rule in our house, some days it is harder to stick to! But husband and I try hard to pick our battles... meaning, if K or N have other more serious issues at hand, and they are not losing weight or malnourished... it truly isn't worth it right now. Know what I mean?? So, both of our girls have sensory processing disorder (SPD)/Sensory Integration Disorder (SID)... so they have food issues on different levels. I try not to battle even though it frustrates me to no end. K only wants carbs and sweets. N is just flat out picky and eats very little. I mean a tiny amount. But they are both healthy. I have to do extra work... but it makes for less fighting. This morning I made N a bowl of organic oatmeal... No! So I just put one of those Annies blueberry poptarts in front of her and some chocolate soy milk and some fresh fruit. I walked away. Those were her choices. She ate a little bit of each. I let them eat good food but they think they are getting *junkfood* K eats a LOT... so I have to limit her. I portion out her food and then put out fruit. It is not always fun... I put out choices a lot of times and that is it. Eat what you want. In our house though we have an agreement that they have to take a bite, just one bite of everything. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
