[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 222035, member: 3626"] First and foremost, welcome! I see your daughter has Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). If you ever need any specific help on this, shout out. I've been through the mill and back on this one. I'm sorry you have mood disorder thrown in the mix, too, but it could be a blessing in disguise because at least you have a chance at medications helping with some of the issues. As to the "odd" question, I think it is more of a taste bud issue at that age. I never even thought of asking whether a younger child could tell what was what. They just normally knew what they liked and knew what it was called. Thinking back, I do remember my daughter asking what something was (turkey breast) because it wasn't in a shape she was used to. She knew chicken unless I cut it up and mixed it with something because she recognized the shape; not so sure she recognized the taste. Ditto steaks and hamburgers. I doubt she would have known they were beef, though, and even today a turkey burger is a burger to her. Pork chops she knew because they were a favorite. Ham not so much until she was older. [/QUOTE]
