Fussy eaters

Mealtimes can be highly frustrating when your child refuses to eat your food, or eats only certain
foods. Children can be picky eaters, and while it’s frustrating, most paediatricians will tell you that as
long as a child’s growth pattern is appropriate, don’t worry. A child’s appetite fluctuates daily during the growing years, as do their calorie needs. A child’s growth typically comes in spurts, and energy requirements vary widely among children.

In general, if your child is growing well, and not losing weight or getting fat, then he/she is probably eating enough volume.
