You never want to give in and give your child everything he wants to eat because first and foremost is his health. A diet rich in chicken nuggets or sweets, which is what kids like the most is not good because they run the risk of being anemic if they don’t get the nutrients they need.
It’s very important not to take picky eaters for granted. A recent study from Duke University found that picky eaters are at a higher risk of psychiatric problems down the road. Children that are picky eaters tend to be sensitive kids that see things differently. This is why it’s important to try different things in order to introduce your child to new types of foods.
