Do you have hassles with your children at mealtimes?

Do you find yourself getting stressed because your child:

  1. Leaves the table and then comes back?
  2. Eats food in the living room?
  3. Doesn’t like to eat what you serve?

 

You can bring out the super nanny part of you by having a few simple, non-negotiable rules.  Why?  Because the super nanny is in charge, not the children!  Children will digest their food better if they sit and eat at the table.  This reinforces family social time together.  Ideally, you want to have at least one sit down meal with the family at least once a day.

 

Having children eat at the table instead of the living room or family room makes it easier to keep the house clean and sets a standard for them about where to eat.

 

If a child doesn’t like what’s been served, calmly say, “That’s okay.  That means there will be more for the rest of us.  You can eat again when we have the next meal.”  Then don’t say anything else.  Then sit and feel confident as the super nanny parent that you are!
