Do not force children to eat

Often encountered children who refuse certain foods from an early age. Convinced that they are necessary for normal development, parents are trying persuasions, threats, punishment, blackmail, pleading, to consent to just the food ... If you are to healthy children with high levels of energy, there is no need to worry. You need to respect their individuality in taste, but also the needs of the organism. Taste and is usually associated with nutritional needs. 


Children from an early age not to be penalized to a meal, but they get used to the timely and high quality nutrition through regular meals, but with great respect for their individuality in terms of taste.
While obesity in childhood is increasingly mentioned as a problem for many parents is the problem when the youngest refuse food. A child or eat a little and seldom or reject a particular type of food and your diet down to a few food types. Often encountered children who refuse certain foods from an early age. Convinced that they are necessary for normal development, parents are trying persuasions, threats, punishment, blackmail, pleading that they consent to that just for food ... If you are to healthy children with high levels of energy, there is no need to worry. You need to respect their individuality in taste, but also the needs of the organism. Taste and is usually associated with nutritional needs. Especially in the age when the child is not deformed their taste food and industrial embedded bad eating habits.
Children's sense is not used to the artificial flavors. When children have an innate need for food that bears a natural taste and smell. Adults changing the senses, offering children a modified cow's milk instead of breast, industrial jar of porridge, artificial juices, and when they learn to chew and cookies, snacks and other "garbage" that is called a food, the problems start.


The child knows what you did not agree
In addition, what happens to a child simply refuses to eat a certain type of food for feeling what it is good and what harm it (and if parents and doctors think that he uses) is going to reflect the intolerance as allergy. It also happens that the digestive system show that the youngest individual food does not fit through the messy and bad chairs, gas, etc..
Children often do not like meat. Refuse to eat even when they are first offered. Intolerance to milk and milk products is also common. Let us not force the child, but his offer other foods that contain calcium, and has them in abundance. It happens that the child is allergic to a type of fruit or vegetables. It is possible that the body is not necessary the quantity of certain minerals or vitamins, that the balance established in the body, not wanting to disturb him, sent a message through the senses of taste - I DO NOT LIKE, BECAUSE WE DO NOT NEED! It happens that, not finding enough of the elements required in the food he was offered, the child scratches the wall and eat lime, eat the ants and the like. Intuitively recognize the sources of it, at that point, deficient nutritional elements.

Respect children's appetites and inclinations
Therefore, children should not be, and often not even possible to force the issue even eat certain foods, even in terms of quantity. Also, do not expect that children's tastes and needs constant amount of food. No need to worry if your child eats at one time or less refuses to accept what was once a happy meal. The changes caused by various factors - the season, a period of intense growth, the level of physical activity, mental balance.
Disease in children and usually refuse to eat. Neither therefore does not need to worry, but respected as appetite infallible indicator of the required amount. Fasting during the disease organism is released toxins. It also saves energy that would be spent on digestion, and that it is necessary for the immune system. When healed, the child often has a heightened appetite to regain weight and then the turning point occurred in his choice of food. Then you have to be imaginative. It is proven that children who are allowed to eat only what she chose to develop properly. The proper selection of food grown-ups can be good strategists.

Unobtrusive school of taste
Invite your child to help in the kitchen - it is not practical, but it is useful to de Forest, and smells when saving meal the appetite. Ask him quietly if he wants to eat lunch and if you can not refuses to mention more food, sit near him and concentrate on enjoying the meal. Do not talk to friends and relatives about the problem, because it enlarges the time, especially when a child hears in the background, even when it seems that concentrated on my game. The foods you like put a small amount (not much change the taste) of foods that carry a high concentrate of nutrients. The food that a child may accept to be the basis for new dishes.
