Any advice please...my ds is 4 years old..whenever we sit down for a family meal we go through the same rigmarole every time..everyone starts eating their meal and ds says he doesn't like it / want it. Sometimes even slides it across the table which results in an instant timeout. After the usual coercion he then will start to eat but will get out of his chair, kick his sisters chair and generally acts up. We have tried reward charts, warnings etc. We generally always end up with a timeout before he finally sits down and eats his meal. It's driving my dh and I mad! Any advice please....?
