Ds is 2.9 and barely a vegetable passes his lips unless it's well hidden.
He actually eats generally well apart from this, but it basically means that if we have a meat and veg type of meal then the veg will not be touched. At the moment I do no more than tell him eg he can't have any ketchup if he doesn't eat 5 peas or something along those lines, but I leave it as his choice and occasionally he eats the peas....
It does make it quite hard though, and he certainly doesn't have enough veg in his diet, although he does like some random things like spinach and onion tart.....
So I was just wondering at what sort of age people began insisting their dc ate some veg and how they enforced that. So far food has remained a fairly battle free zone for us....
Thanks!
