A friend of mine is doing baby led weaning. I know many of you are advocate's of this but she states her measure of success is that her DS will eat a chicken leg (both our DS's are 10mo). My puree weaned son would also eat a chicken leg if I gave him one (he can happily eat a peach whole) but I just don't think I could ever be brave enough! I don't give my cat chicken leg's for fear of the bones splintering and so many times I have roasted a chicken thigh and found the bone split inside.
Am I being old fashioned? Should I toughen up and attempt the chicken leg? She does make me (and other friends) feel like our DC's are a bit behind because we use spoons.
