I do agree with you Caro about not fighting - I was also given that advice and found it to be good advice. BUT, I still wouldn't give in to them and give them the food they want. Jack learnt before he was even 1 that he didn't even have to try the food in front of him, he would always be offered something he liked afterwards. It was only after I stopped doing that, that his eating improved. When he was hungry and knew there would be no other food, he ate what was in front of him. And actually liked it!
