Her father and I!! For you to even say that...I won't even go there. The plate returns every meal time until she TRIES it. It's not a hard concept and I'm sure after a few times she will get the idea.
I once thought like you. Now I have meals that arent a power struggle. When I insisted that my kids try something they didnt want to try.. they would force themselves to gag ( to prove they didnt like it) and then proceed to vomit. Now I put the food on their plate. Tell them I would like them to take 2 bites of it, but if they dont I dont force it.
My kids eat healthy 95 percent of the time. When we go out or on vacation its a treat for them, therefore not a big deal to me if they dont eat healthy.
