Dd has always had a tiny appetite. She is petite, but I amwas too, so I've never been massively concerned.
She's always been fairly fussy, but we've managed her eating fairly well. She would not eat a massive variety but would eat mince, so we could make cottage pie, spah Bol, meatballs etc...
But then she stopped liking mash; so we allowed the mince and booked potatoes. It wasn't any extra work.
But now she's gone off mince, and near, and cheese sauce.
Basically we're downtown chicken and potatoes. Preferably in the guise of chicken nuggets and chips; but also as roast dinner and any variation really.
I've had enough of the food refusal and her lack of eating.
It makes tea times a pain.
So I'm coming down hard.
I cook dinner; you either eat it or go and get bread and butter.
But I know she'll just not eat.
