My son billy has just turned 3, he is a lovely bright lively boy who is has just learnt that there are boundaries to push! Billy has a very restricted diet, and although he eats well, he only eats a small number of foods. He's been like this for around a year and I just put it down to faddy eating, but recently he's gone up a gear, starting to cut out more foods and examining the foods I give him, he won't eat it if its not cut right or touching a different kind of food. I have spoken to the health visitor who threw me a bit, I was expecting her to just call him faddy, but she was really quite concerned and has referred him to a dietician. I got a copy of the letter today and seeing it in print has made me feel quite sad. I've tried just giving him what I want him to eat but he simply refuses everthing, i get him to help in the kitchen, but he's not keen to even touch the food I've tried bribery stopping treats and getting cross, but nothing has worked. I could really do with some tips from like minded people, I just want the best for my son, but his diet is now affecting us as a family, its a nightmare taking him out to eat and is taking the edge of our days. Any advice would be gratefully received !!
