Hi Doctor, My kid is 5yrs 8month old and takes lot of time to complete his meal, sometimes more than 1.5hr. We give him all different types if food and one he likes and suggests, but no luck. Keeps food in his mouth and don't swallow. He chews a lot before he swallows. Please suggest how to solve this.. Thanks K
