OP here... My son is 10 months old. I'm really at my wits' end. He had been a good eater from the start, unlike his older brother who I couldn't get to eat anything either. I set out to feed my kids all organic, home-made, fresh and so forth. I gave up with my first after having spent literally hours a day preparing healthy, nutritious and yes, tasty foods that he wouldn't touch beyond a spoon or two. My two year old grew fine on very little food and now eats the same we do. My younger. however, is tiny for his age - he wears clothes for 3mo (but developing normally, thank God, and the pedi's not concerned). I can only get him to taste a spoon of something and then it's over. But anything he picks up from the floor (bread crumbs, and yes, cat kibble (food), he will eat. And scream when I take it away from him. Maybe he's on a strike or teething or... I don't know. Maybe I should start placing food on the floor for him LOL.

Girl I oughta clock you for saying that. For the last time, my profile picture will remain. I'm not guna change it every minute to fit my comment. I'm just sad that hour FML community has such nitpicky commenters. And I'm sure many others here will second that. Sorry if this comment has alarmed you, just needed to get that off my chest. Better? :P

Your comment reminded me of Nepeta from Homestuck :P
I didn't mean it in a bad way. I just meant that if your picture was a cat I would've laughed harder than I did reading the original comment. It was a good comment in the first place...

My daughter thinks that she is a Marguay (a tree cat). She steals the cat's food, climbs trees, scratches, and meows
I don't think you realize how appetizing cat kibble is.
You might as well give her dog treats for when she does something if she's willing to go on all fours.

Maybe I should ask her why?

You should*
Now you can get her to eat broccoli. Tell her the florettes are tiny trees.
Except the kid is 10 months old, and probably doesn't even know what a tree is.

OP, I'm a nanny and I have been a preschool teacher for eight years. The key with children is not to allow them control of their diet yet at the same time do. Offer him a variety of food items, and let him eat what he wants from the plate of food. If he doesn't want to eat anything you've given him, then let him down and don't sweat it. Children will not starve themselves I promise! Be consistent with offering him foods, offer him food at ever eating time his schedule is on. Teeth are a huge issue with babies ad toddlers, as well as food textures. If your baby is teething, chances are something cool with sooth his gums and make him less grouchy/against eating. They make pouches you can shove frozen fruits or anything cold or frozen in. The child can hold them, and eat them at his leisure. I'm not sure what they are called, but it looks like a net on a ring. Now, textures are a different issue. As children grow, their soft pallet and taste buds change as well. If you notice your baby isn't into a certain food, asses the texture of it. Is it too hard, soft, mushy,etc. Then, try something with an opposite texture. Good luck, children can stress you out without even trying I know!
Then make the food on the floor
