I am so worried about dss1 aged 5, he is so thin and obviously has issues with food in general, he is a very picky eater, but this seems to be getting worse! I have tried to mention to dp that something needs to be done about dss weight & eating habits which he agree's and it had be mentioned to dss mum, but she doesn't seem to concerned about it. On Sunday things became much worse, I had cooked a Sunday dinner for me, dp, dss2 and ds and asked dss1 what he wanted as I knew he wouldn't eat much, he agreed to a very small meal which I made separate and we all sat down to eat, dss1 just sat and stared at his meal and then started to act up, which he has done before, hoping to get sent to the step/bedroom to avoid eating! Which happened, when he came down he sat for an hour staring at his meal, and then he ate a Yorkshire pudding I asked him to eat 2more mouthfuls and he cried for a good 15 mins. It breaks my heart every tea time but he is so tiny I can't see him not eat, all was settled (eventually) and we were sat in the lounge waiting for his mum to arrive, as they go home Sunday night, and he was sick, quite a bit, I felt dreadful, but there had been no build up, he wasn't feeling sick in the day, he had been fine, he went home and dp had a text to say he had been sick again, yet the next day he was in school, apparently he felt better! Aibu to get myself so worked up and upset about this when his mum seems to just shrug it off?
Sorry for the long post!
