If anybody has any ideas as to how to get him to eat more than the 1-3 bites he currently has at school please share. We are on a gluten free diet and I am wasting a huge amount of money we do not have on lunchbox food.
I have asked school to help and they seem to think it will all work out. He is brought into lunch last as otherwise he will flip out about where he sits. I have made all of his favourite foods. I have made everything into shapes/colours, etc. I have bought him a transformers lunchbox. I know he suffers in the afternoon at school as he hasn't had enough to eat. I am wondering whether I just have to find someone to watch DS2 every day for a few weeks and go into school and make him eat.
Oh and today I broke his lunch into 4 little bits and said he could have a sticker for each bit he eats. He had one bite of a cracker.
Short of sitting with him myself I can only think he needs to be separated from the others...maybe ear defenders...I don't know...HELP!
(yes...he is hungry when he comes home)
