It's important to keep things in perspective when it comes to picky eaters. If your child wants spaghetti for breakfast, let your child have spaghetti. It's up to you how cooperative you want to be with your children in regards to their eating habits. Of course, it may not be too convenient for a working mom to cook pasta at 7 a.m. Whip them out and try offering a cold carrot.
Toddlers eat small amounts throughout the day.
As long as they are getting the basic nutrients and are not sick, let them keep rolling. Today, many mothers are working outside the home, and it's difficult to prepare a nutritious meal in less than 30 minutes. It's hard to work all day and then come home and go through the mess and fuss of cooking a meal. So more families are eating out more often. That raises some possible health concerns.
