We all know one—the picky eater. They eat the same, few foods every day. They usually only like unhealthy choices, such as chips, sweets, and soda. They refuse to try anything new.
It becomes a battle for parents at home and school. For a young child (preschool age), this is normal. Most children outgrow their picky eating habits. However, children who have a developmental disability, such as autism, may be picky eaters for a longer time. It might even be a lifetime.
As a parent, it’s your job to provide healthy meals. Also, parents should set regular times for meals and snacks. While you can adjust this schedule, you should keep it as regular as possible.
