Line 1: Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offering to them and a child rarely dislikes food unless it is badly cooked.
Line 2: The way a meal is cooked and served is the most important and an attractive served meal will often improve a child’s appetite.
Line 3: Never ask a child whether he likes and dislikes a food and never discuss likes and dislikes in front of him or allow nobody else to do so.
Line 4: If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother refuses vegetables under the child’s hearing he is likely to copy this procedure.
Line 5: Take it for grant that he likes everything and he probably will.
Line 6: Nothing healthful should be omitted out the meal because of a supposing dislike.
Line 7: At meal times it is a good idea to give a child a small portion and let him come back for a second helping other than give him as much as he is likely to eat all at once.
Line 8: Do not talk too much to the child during meal times, but let him get on with his food, and do not allow him to leave the table immediately after a meal or he will soon learn to swallow his food so that he can hurry back to his toys.
Line 9: Under no circumstance must a child be coaxed or forced to eat.
