Why a baby of 2 years do not like to eat food of his own?

Answer 1

A child of two is an interesting person. They are just learning that they are a separate person from mom and dad. Before this they didn't see themselves as individuals and that is why if you ask a two year old a question or want them to do something the answer will always be "no". I don't care what it is. This is their way of becoming an individual, so you frame things with a two year old to get the response you want. Don' t say "do you want eggs?" instead say "today we are having eggs" When they throw the usual daily temper tantrum walk away and tell he/she that when they are done you will talk to them . You can also put them in a time out, but you have to make sure they remain in that spot. Food is always a big one with a 2 year old. A child will eat when they are hungry. The important part here is that you tell them when they are hungry the food you have made will be waiting for them so you pick up the plate and put it in the fridge. DO NOT LET THEM HAVE CANDY OR SWEETS OR THE CAKE YOU MADE UNTIL THEY EAT THE DINNER YOU HADFOR THEM. This is very important because if you do you are teaching him/her that if I throw a fuss at dinner I get to eat what I want. Too many parents give in at this point because they just want to eat dinner themselves. In about 20 min he/she will want something to eat so put the dinner in front of them that they didn't eat. If it requires heating do that. They may balk at eating it and you may go through the same routine you just did, but do that DO NOT GIVE IN. You are setting the tone that will last the rest of his/her life and yours too.
