Moms, please help ! Our toddler is 2.5 and we are having a lot of issues with him sitting in one place and eating food. He takes 4 - 5 bites and goes running to play with something. He is picky but atleast he was eating some vegetables, fruits - and now he is fussy even with them. He hates high chair so we can't constrain him. How did you tackle toddler eating struggles? Context - we did potty training a week back and not sure whether that has impacted eating behavior. Nothing else has changed.

Thanks - I will check it out.

You need to get him a chair with a footrest. It makes all the difference! And setting the boundary that once he gets up, meal is over and you take the plate away. But also at that age sitting still for 5 minutes is the norm.

You can allow for a certain number of “wiggle breaks” if yours eats more slowly but set a timer or something so it’s like 2 minutes wiggle energy, 5 minutes sit back down.

Mine will eat a huge meal one day and 2 bites the next but is still growing so I try not to stress about the amount.

I have twins the same age. Honestly, I just let them go. I keep the plate ‘open’ for the next couple hours after the meal. They come back and graze.
You have to pick you battles and eating all your food in one sitting is not a hill I’m willing to die on.

I’ll add to this- my kids are excellent eaters. We take them to restaurants with zero problems. They eat what we eat for the most part. There is a bunch of research h to say our job as parents is to provide the food. It’s their job to choose what to eat and how much. This is how they learn to trust their own hunger cues and become intuitive eaters. So, I give them options I’m happy for them to eat and they choose what to finish.
Many nights they’ll also have a yogurt in the bath if they didn’t eat much of the main meal.

I got to know someone thru work, and flirted a bit over 1 week. Then we never spoke again because of work geography. He reached out this week after 9 months+ asking for a visa sponsor to take a vacay in my country (given mobility restriction these days), and asked me to hook him up with a business visa referral letter thru my connections. He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?

Also I am open to discussing partners, marketers, and investors even though I have nothing extraordinary to offer right now. But I have a really good brand, story, and grit to make it big with the right help.
