"Pushing is different from trying"
It's true that we don't need to push our children to eat that much and what we want them to eat. But for me, it depends on how the parents work for it without pushing their children what they don't want to. I'm proud to share my ways how to raise my children and it's my own opinion and own strategy as you can see in every article that I wrote about parents and children. One of my examples that I don't push my children is eating something that they don't want to eat. Yes, why? I have my own way about that. Let them try to eat what they don't want little by little, a little briefing is needed like tell them the benefits of those foods they don't like. And I'm proud to say that my children did it. As long as the foods are healthy nothing to worry about eating that nutrition. Actually, it's really fun letting them try because they are actually paying attention to what I am talking about the foods. Just for example their favorite fish, all they want in a fish is dried fish and it's not really healthy we all know that. Do something creative and attractive to them. What I did is making soup for dried fish.
just boil water and add onions, ginger, tomatoes, calamansi, garlic, and veggies then last put the dried fish. It's tasty enough, look I'm sharing foods that are affordable enough and yet healthy. My children didn't eat that cabbage called pechay here Jn the Philippines but putting it on Tilapia fish, it's effective. My son said it's delicious! So don't let your children made their own decision in eating foods only what they want. Make an experiment for them, it's effective.
Wow!nice...your kids make this dish beautifully.... and it's looking so yammy also. Thanks for sharing
