So she used the "no thank you helping" method. She planned meals that, in general, we all liked. But if there was something that one of us didn't like, she only gave that person a "no thank you" helping (which was about 3 forkfuls). You HAD to eat that no thank you helping but it was tolerable. And it saved my mom's sanity not having to make special dishes at every meal. (It was funny 'cuz my dad had to eat his fair share of "no thank you" helpings too - and he couldnt' refuse, lest he set a bad example for all of us kids. :)Jill of all Tradeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11457731170900293409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145327588129523254.post-89638783512586511802013-03-19T09:39:05.917-07:002013-03-19T09:39:05.917-07:00These are great tips for dealing with picky eaters...These are great tips for dealing with picky eaters!
