A. Hello, dear. Some children are very fussy. Eaters, and some are really lazy and they just pretend to be eating. That's why they spend a lot of time you have to cheer up your child, ask her for the few things, like if you finish your food quickly.I'll get you an ice cream or we will play your favorite game or we will Watch you favourite show or you can sometimes compare her with the other children that have her friends eats quickly and then they do, they favorite things you have to keep on encouraging your child

A. That’s not good for your child I’m just going to recommend you that you should try to give varieties of food to the child feed with your own hands and enter in your child by doing some activity with your child or you should go ahead with playing some game narrating some activity or story and that’s how you should try to feed your child
