How long...

[borisjohnsonsstylist]

... do you leave a two year old who is largely uninterested in food sat in front of a meal waiting for them to eat?

Personally, not long. My almost 2 year old now eats so much less than she used to, I assume just not growing as quickly now. I try to avoid giving a sweet treat when she’s barely eaten anything, but that can be hard when sibling is getting!

For the past three months he seems to have existed on little more than bear paws and the odd biscuit. Refuses all meals.

Until you have finished eating.
