“When I eat, I am deaf and dumb”... Many parents complain that children do not always want to follow this rule.
But it should be noted that sometimes even moms and dads forget about the importance of this phrase.
Some parental remarks at the table can be very harmful to a child.
What specific popular phrases are we talking about?
"You're not going anywhere until you finish eating!"
Never force your child to finish the meal.
It is quite possible that the baby has already eaten his fill.
The desire to “overfeed” a child can lead to the child becoming overweight.
"Eat what you are given!"
Such pressure can cause eating disorders in the baby.
If a child flatly refuses to eat a particular food, don’t force him.
No time to cook something else? Then let the kid try to cook something himself! Of course, under the supervision of parents.
"Don't eat this, you won't like it."
The child must draw his own conclusions about his tastes.
Let your child try a piece of food, even if you are absolutely sure that the young gourmet will be disappointed with the dish.
And if we are talking about food that a child cannot eat (for example, because it contains an alcoholic ingredient), then do not put it on the table at all. Eat such food only when the baby does not see you.
Previously, there were listed things that parents should not forbid their children.
