3. What to do when your kid refuses dinner? Do you offer another option? Send them to bed hungry?

Welcome to the first Single Scoop 🙌  In these episodes, I will chat about one (single) topic and give you the scoop about the how-to for a common feeding concern! In this Single Scoop episode, I chat all about: • What should you do when your kid refuses dinner? • Should you send them to bed hungry? • How old should a kid be when you implement this strategy? • What if they say they aren’t hungry for dinner but ask for dessert? • What if they say they’re hungry later? • What if they wake up hungry? • How to handle this if you're concerned about weight gain? • Are they getting all the nutrition they need? • How does it affect their energy level/mood the next day? • What about offering an alternative option?  Is doing that bad?
