How can you tell if a child is just a picky eater or really just hates certain foods and wants to rebel? Right now I have a child that I sit for who is the worlds pickiest eater and not sure what to do. Picker eaters have never lasted longer than a month with me, this one is stubborn.

It is not easy to tell the difference between them. I think rebellion is something that comes with age so that would really all depend on the age of the child. Hang in there, I am sure you will be fine.

An eating disorder is marked by extremes. It is present when a person experiences severe disturbances in eating behavior, such as extreme reduction of food intake or extreme overeating, or feelings of extreme distress or concern about body weight or shape.

My girls are very picky eaters. To this day, they refuse to eat vegetables and fruits. I make sure that I am up to date with their vitamins, but I do not make them eat what they don't want. I encourage good eating habits but don't badger them. I was a picky eater as a child and now as an adult I am a pretty well balanced eater. As long as they are healthy, I don't worry.

I have heard that most times when kids refuse certain things they were never brought into the food types at an early age and given the chance to try new things, they were just told when they are older "eat it" and thus the rebel times start.

I hope I do not get to that stage. I will be giving my baby a little bit of everything as soon as the doctor says it is ok. My brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces haven't been picky at all. I expect my baby to be receptive to all types of foods.

Great time to read the useful information..in childhood stage ,children not like to eat some healthy foods.. A conscientious mother with some experience can decide how much food is good for the baby. The quantity of food for the baby must be in the process of Safety Baby Cribs increased as it grows older.
