Others muddle messily through, and prefer the comforting personalized service offered with spoon feeding. However the food actually reaches the mouth, once it gets there your determined toddler will decide if it is to go any further. You may find, to your dismay, your choicest culinary creations being lobbed at the dog, used to fingerpaint the highchair or spray the walls with. This can be a particularly trying time for you. You'll agonize over menus, think up ways to decorate foods to please them and generally work yourself into a state wondering what is wrong.
Most likely nothing is wrong.
Your child has just entered a state which must be dealt with firmly. To begin, have a careful look at what you're preparing. If you feel that you're satisfied with the way you have been dealing with the situation to date then simply put their tastebuds to the test. What nagging and anger will not achieve, other tactics might. Try disguising the food you'd really like eaten by mixing in a favorite food, even if the combinations seem bizarre to you.
