POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. A child may refuse to eat even when hungry due to various reasons, such as picky eating, teething discomfort, distractions, or negative associations with mealtime. Sometimes, children may be overwhelmed by the texture or taste of food or may want to assert control over their eating habits. To address this, try offering a variety of foods in small, manageable portions, and make mealtimes positive and relaxed without pressure. Keep distractions like screens away, and establish a consistent routine. Additionally, involve your child in meal preparation to make them more interested in the food. If the issue persists, it may be worth consulting a pediatrician or a nutritionist to rule out any underlying medical concerns.
