I think it's such a primal instinct as mothers to feed our offspring that it's hard not to react when they reject a lovingly prepared meal.
I've used every ounce of self-control I have not to fight over food with Yasin. If he doesn't eat what I put in front of him I try not to react and just take it away and I try not to offer anything else for at least an hour. If he starts playing with it not eating it I take it away too. I just keep offering and he eats what he wants and I eat what he doesn't want (I'm growing fat on scraps lol).

I'm thinking now that its paid off because the woman who looks after his room at child-care says she wishes all her children would eat like him.
He gets his own fruit and yogurt out of the fridge now so I have to keep an eye on him or he'll pig out on that and not eat anything else.
