What do you do when your older baby does not want to eat and is very thin. Not so thin that they are unhealthy but thin enough that people ask you if you feed your child?

Is your family naturally thin? I've seen some really skinny kids, but their parents are also very lanky people. If it isn't a genetic thing, I would go to the doctor. When my son doesn't want to eat, I let it go because if he skips, say, lunch, I know he'll probably eat his dinner. If he skips dinner, he will for sure eat breakfast. But if your child isn't eating for days at a time or something like that I would talk to the doctor.

Firstly, you don't force such baby to eat because by forcing, it can cause indigestion. So,
You can feed the baby by playing a game with your baby.
You can make new dishes for your baby that he/she likes.
You can change the feeding schedule according to the change of temperature.
If your baby sick , then offer a child fluids like fruit juices but don't force.
