Eating Problems

The problem Of non-hunger, or
general Indifference and resistance
to food is so frequent among chill
dren. Of preschool age as to make
physicians feel that it must, to
some extent, be normal. w..
Often the first attack of nom
hunger, no matter what the reason,
is signal for worry and distress
on the mothers part. A reduction
of diet at the first attack, and no
forcing, should be the rule.
A doctors experiment, carried on
with a group of children, who, from
babyhood, had not been forced to
eat, showed that ITO of the 1879
cases eat well, and that none of
the children with poor appetites
were underweight except those suf-
fering from some chronic disease.
| AS a matter of fact, an acute ill
ness, such as common cold, often
initiates the problem, and the an
Mety of the mother gives it i'm
petus. Lack of appetite is often the
first symptom Of a cold or other ill
ness. Instead of recognizing this
probability, the mother urges the
child to eat. Then, association
arises in his mind of food coupled
with the unpleasant feeling of ill.
ness, and this persists after the ILL
ness is cleared up.
Decayed teeth, enlarged and in
fected tonsils, with the resulting
spread of poisons in the blood
stream may be responsible for non
hunger, or anorexia. Improper
breathing due to enlarged adenoids
leaves a bad taste in the mouth
and lessons the child's desire for
food.
A diet too rich in one element,
such as sugar or fat, may be the
cause. Cookies or milk between
meals decrease the amount eaten
at the next meal. Sweets particu-
larly have the effect of satisfying
temporarily without furnishing
bulk or staying qualities.
The lunch of bread and butter,
or fruit, given in the middle OF
the morning or after school to the
hungry child who eats well at
meals, is not frowned upon. The
child who has a hearty appetite and
eats whatever is placed before him
at meals, should be his own judge
of what he requires besides. The
growing child who plays and works
actively is using up great deal OF
fuel, and must have more in pro-
portion to his size than adults,
whose food goes to maintenance
and activity only, not to growth as
well

Children are sometimes too tired
to eat. A rest Of fifteen minutes Of
ten makes them attack their food
with zest. If the rest periods are
to be successful, they must be
|pleasurable to the child rather than
distasteful, problem that will tax
the mothers ingenuity. Sometimes
the child is not tired enough to eat;
he has not had opportunity for air
and exercise since his last meal.
The child who is allowed up late
at night rarely shows interest in
his breakfast. Regular hours are
of immense Importance here; for
the child who sleeps late in the
morning and eats his breakfast at
nine or ten o'clock is in turn not
hungry for the noon meal-which
for young children should be the
main meal of the day. Sometimes a
little outdoor exercise before break
fast stimulates an appetite.
Perhaps the habit Of Glow eating
is contributing to the problem. The
mothers irritation has the erect
of slowing up rather than hasten
ing the procedure Children have
many things to do which interest
them more than eating. We must
not expect them to exhibit delight
at the prospect of sitting still for
half an hour, unless the associa-
lions they have formed with meal
time are pleasant. A limited
amount of dawdling should not be
corrected, If the child eventually
eats all that is given him. Having
an alarm. set to go off in twenty or
thirty minutes sometimes helps the
slow child. Urging him on may
only create an aversion in his mind
for the whole business Of eating,
and will be more harmful than
helpful.
Talking about the child at meal
time gives him attention which no
greatly enjoys. If, by refusing to
eat, he can get another to feed him,
it means even more attention. We
should exhibit a casual, matter-of-
fact attitude if we see that the child
is just playing for notice.
Sometimes the trouble lies IN
over-stimulation. The absorbing
talk of adults, the antics OF other
children in the family, make it hard
for the little offender to put his
mind on eating. One four-year-old
ate well when alone with his moth
er, but swallowed q bite at the
meals when his father and uncies.
much engrossed in talk of sports
were at home.
