Forcing your child to finish his plate, when he is already satisfied, can have complications that you can not imagine.
FORCING CHILDREN TO EAT CAN HARM THEIR HEALTH!
Before it was common to hear moms say that if we did not completely finish the plate full of food, we could not get up from the table and leave food, it was unthinkable!
All moms are concerned about feeding their child and it is always reassuring to know that they ate well. But this does not mean that you should force him to finish a whole dish, better, he prefers to give him nutritious dishes in small portions to make sure that the food will provide him with all the nutrients that his body needs and thus continue his good development.
But recent studies have verified that this can bring some health problems in digestive problems such as gastritis and colitis from an early age or being overweight and obese, which triggers other diseases such as diabetes and hypertension.
NUTRITIONISTS SAY …
Nutritionists comment that it is very common for parents to force their child to leave the plate clean, despite the fact that they can give them portions that are not appropriate for their age, with the premise that they need to eat because they are growing.
What experts recommend is that you serve the dish to your child according to his age, complexion, height, even in children of the same age, this also varies.
Perhaps your pediatrician could also recommend the right portions for your child, as well as the foods that will help him best.
If you force your child to eat you will take away the taste for savoring it.
