who decide not to eat green foods, for example, or not to eat vegetables at all. These are issues that can
and should be addressed by the child’s parents with the proper medical support. A man poured out on
the Reddit forum to obtain the opinion of users, precisely concerning the eating disorder of his 9 year
old son: the boy only eats food that he does not need to chew. A situation that lasted too long and
forced this father to take action, drawing criticism from his wife and some users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

«My 9-year-old son is pretty picky,» the man began to explain on Reddit. «He hardly eats anything. It
started when he was about five years old. He came home from kindergarten without having touched his
lunch, except yogurt and applesauce. We took him to the pediatrician, who said we should see a
dietician. While we were waiting for approval from our insurance company, we tried different things to
get our son to eat,» the father continued.
One day, the child’s parents realized that he would only eat food he didn’t have to chew, such as
mashed potatoes or soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The parents gave in to their son’s preference and began to prepare only «liquid» food for him. At the age
of 9, however, the boy does not seem to want to change his diet, as doctors and parents had hoped. So
the father, tired of having to prepare different meals each time, decided to teach him how to cook.»I
started taking my son into the kitchen with me and teaching him how to use a blender and other
cooking utensils. Now he cooks his own food most nights while I cook dinner. My wife, on the other
hand, always cooks separate meals for him. He says I went too far in forcing him to do his own kitchen. I
supervise him and help him with everything he needs. I think he must know how to cook his own food,
because there is no way that people around him will accept his strangeness for the rest of his life,\u201d the
father explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/vendeto.am\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-10.png\")

The child’s mother, however, does not seem very happy with the way her husband is behaving with their
9-year-old son: buying and preparing food should, according to her, be something a parent should
always provide. such a young child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
