They usually shut up once i turn off all the lights. Except when she was in heat. She was starting back in heat when i took her in to get spayed. Glad we are done with that yowling.

Sitting here thinking about my mom. Kinda tickled . Whites compared kids to dogs and she compared old men to dogs. LOL I dont get it really,, I liked dogs.

All I meant was when you're feeding a passel of dogs, like I did for 40 years or so, there's no bending to their pickiness. They eat what you give them, or they don't eat. No reason, other than medical ones, for kids to be any different.

I have been hungry lots of times. I have ate from garbage cans. someones discarded food . Its not something I hope to ever repeat. I eat what I like and what taste good to me. I bet you all do too.

I eat things I don't dislike. There's a difference. If I only ate what I like, it would all be sweets and bread and junk food. I try to eat things that are healthy, avoid excess fat, try to eat green things at every meal, but I have never cooked and served myself liver. When I was young, I ate what was put on my plate, whether I liked it or not. Somehow, I manged to survive. But I did almost barf at the table... liver...

I just wrote the list here they said their mom makes for them. You didnt hurt my feelings. I have tried the go to bed hungry. It dont work.

Give it more time. The advice books for picky eaters recommend having at least one item per meal that the picky eater will eat. Doesn't like fish or broccoli? Then maybe Mr. Picky can eat a piece of the cornbread. Doesn't like chicken or potatoes? Eat some green beans. Going to bed hungry is a choice they are making for themselves, but if they get sweet cereal for breakfast, you are making the choice easier. Piece of peanut butter toast with glass of milk is better.
By the way, I don't think your GKs are picky as much as spoiled. It takes introducing a new food several times before it is accepted without fuss. I know this from experience... one picky eater and one spoiled (just a little bit!).

Yep BE PREPARED!!!

haha I knew it!

I think I look at children differently then anyone else I know. I know none of you hold the same opinions I do. Sometimes I dont even agree with myself. LOL

Another thought is how one will they be there. If it is for a extended time it is worth the retraining but if it is just for a couple weeks why bother.

My GKs don't eat much of the stuff I eat. I can only eat meat and salad. I eat a lot of fish. When they come it's hard because I never have any processed food in the house. No bread, no cereal but I have lots of oatmeal and eggs. Usually I ask them if they want an egg. No grandma well about an hour later, grandma can I have an egg. Lol
It's tough cuz we love the little darlings so.

When Robert was born I didnt notice anything different about him. My mom said she did . As he start talking, walking , the temper tantrums came too. He would throw a fit if I made him put socks on. I was just as determined he was wearing them as he was not. I would cook something and he would throw it. He would get spanked for his wicked ways. The most defiant child I had ever seen. Yrs pass and I find out its not his fault.. The socks literally hurt his feet, the texture of the food like sandpaper across his tongue. The tantrums screaming because the bird outside singing was driving him crazy it was so loud along with the water dripping and me walking across the floor and any simple sound being made he heard them all at once. He was unable to block it out. He was spanked, put in time out, things taken from him for something he had no control over. I didnt know, never suspected a thing . Peeps, we just dont know how someone else feels or why they act the way they do Take CB. He had cancer, kidney removed, Chemo, radiation. Did it damage his taste buds ? WE DONT KNOW. Kids arent born defiant . They are honest, loving innocent creatures and we as parents turn them into something else. I will never spank another child as long as I live. It hurts me to hear of others that would.
Told you I was different.
