5. Your child is very picky with food
All kids go through a phase where they feel like only eating pizza and mac and cheese each day every day. However, as a parent, you need to make sure your kid is eating nutritious meals, with protein sources, carbs, and vegetables.
It’s important that you help them understand why healthy food is so important for us all, and try to prevent any bad eating habits from developing. Even though it won’t be easy, since we all know how delicious unhealthy foods are, you mustn’t give in every time your child feels like having ice cream.
Focus on offering your children balanced meals, and allow them to have a treat once in a while, but do not make a habit out of it. Yes, there will be times when your kid will refuse to eat what you offer them, but there’s no need to freak out.
After all, there will be another meal in a few hours, and they will definitely eat if they’re hungry. Also, the hunger will make the food look more appetizing, so chances are they won’t refuse to eat it.
Additionally, it’s important not to let your kids eat a lot of snacks before dinner and get full. So resist the temptation of giving them something to snack, and let them eat what you cooked for dinner, instead.
