My Child Won't Eat

"You are not failing. Picky eating is solvable."

Common causes: texture sensitivity · neophobia · control behaviour · sensory differences · undiagnosed allergy · illness or teething

What to try: Division of Responsibility feeding · offer refused food 15–20 times · no pressure · eat together · involve child in food preparation

Children raised on diverse Nigerian foods from 6 months develop broader palates. Returning to cultural foods is itself a picky eating prevention strategy.
