Does this sound like you? If so, have no fear. First of all, is your child eating fruit? If yes, your child is getting many vitamins from the fruit. The best thing you can do is stand back and offer up the vegetables (try 2 different kinds at each meal- kids like to feel like they have choices) and don't push. The second your child picks up on the fact that you may have an agenda (i.,e., child MUST ingest vegetables) they usually will not follow it. This can create a very frustrating cycle for you and your child. |
