that's what we do in our house, if you don't eat what your fed, you sit at the table until it's eaten or you don't eat again until it's the next time to eat. eventually they will get hungry enough and start to slowly eat what's in front of them.

I do it to my nieces and nephews if I cook and its new they'll say its nasty before trying it. Ill either force them to take a bit then tell them if they get off the table I'll spank them sooner or later one of the ten kids will eat it and show me an entire eaten plate of let say hamburger helper. My sisters were always impressed that I got them to eat new things. Theyd also fight me with eggs that had spinach in it or yogurt with fruit and granola. Now they love both.

I want to do that. because that's what my mom did to all of us but isn't a one year old too young? like they won't understand, being that young?? @babynessa

I was like that when I was younger. My grandma would put food in front of me if I ate it great if I didnt she'd say I could starve sooner or later I got hungry and she would hand me my plate of food and thats what I ate. With veggies shed bake like zucchini bread and I couldn't tell. Shed also make zucchini fried paddy, cabbage rolls, ect. Now I love veggies and love trying new things and its all thanks to her for being so strict and actually caring unlike my mother.
