You are not mean at all and LOL Leasha I think that was just a bad choice of words, I'd hardly imagine she was tying her to the high chair and force feeding her... like to see anyone try making a child eat anything LOL.

I think it's important as adults not to make faces or silly comments about any foods. It's how things get passed down. I let my kids try everything and I don't make a fuss or I make as much fuss as I would over any other food. Keep in mind though sensory issues with food is ok too, which is why screaming over a child who says they don't like the texture of pumkin or the feel of beans between their teeth doesn't mean a defiant child.
