[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 331877, member: 1963"] I don't believe in the "clean plate club" even if you are talking small servings. BUT, I think that unless the child is an infant or has some sort of problem affecting glucose levels and the like, well...it isn't going to kill them to wait until the next meal. My mother, who has Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) and to this day can only tolerate a limited variety of foods without literally starting to gag, was made many times to sit overnight to force her to eat. If she didn't eat, well, she was allowed to go to bed, and the SAME food was presented in the AM. We always had tuna or fruit or soup in the house and were welcome to eat that instead of the main meal. I was rather surprised to hear about my grandfather's attitudes on food because we come from a culture in which food plays a major role. The only thing I can attribute it too was the combination of his being a very rigid Aspie, and Britain being under such strict rationing during WW1 [/QUOTE]
