6 year old scared of trying new foods
HI, I have a six year old that is terrified of trying new foods. He currently only wants to eat french fries, pizza with everything scraped off, corn, only if its on the cob, and noodles with butter. He doesn't want to try anything sweet ( including candy), but he will eat potato chips and things like that. We are trying to get him to try different things, but it just seems impossible. We really don't think that he is giving us a power play, it actually seems like he has an anxiety attack when we force him. Does anyone have any suggestions? He is very animal crazy and we think that could be why he is not interested in eating meat, but everything else we just can't figure out. Its just horrible having him crying every time we try to make him taste something new, or if he did kind of like it, he still won't eat it. Please any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
