[QUOTE="jodyp, post: 200183, member: 3905"] thanks everyone, All great suggestions..It is an ongoing battle, and exhusting.. He does receive Occupational Therapist (OT) twice a week and I will discuss with the therapist "brushing". This kid really pushes our buttons and we are trying so hard to keep things together. We don't want to put him on medication's and we are trying to deal. Now, of course, there are a lot more going on than eating.... Oh, by the way, he also eats off the floor...picks up food and eats it. Popcorn from a dirt piles, other people's food from thier table, chips from the street......Wierd/Crazy. He is the type of kid that will sneak food too. He is an adorable kid, but boy, he has his issues and he is a royal pain in the butt! As far as food, again, I can't physically force him to try something. Maybe I should just let it run its course, with guidelines. No dinner-No Snack/Dessert! But I will leave an option of a healthy snack- banana or cereal bar. (he used to eat these items, but now has stopped.) Or just a bowl of cereal with-milk. Looks like I'm going to have to meet with our Developmental Pediatician again..... THIS NEVER STOPS DOES IT? [/QUOTE]
