A. pls don't let him get into this habit. my son developed multiple cavities due to this cause as I understand now is the child is not hungry enough or he is busy in another activity while eating, such as screen or playing so u need to address these both. give him food that's tasty and he enjoys eating himself, don't feed him.. if he is not willing to eat, he is either not hungry or doesn't like the food or both.. if he is keeping food in mouth, that means he is full don't let him get distracted to screens or games while eating, that way even if he is hungry, he won't be able to eat to his appetite.. all the best
