As some have already said, the parallel to picky eating kids is uncanny. This is just the sort of fear that parents who won't lay down the law have. Truth is, if you were very poor and nothing but a porridge or the like was available for your kids to eat, they would eat it and not complain. The instinct to eat to stay alive would kick in. They will not choose to starve.
