A. Mam at this age a child is going to eat each and every thing properly however you can offer it to the child so you actually have to completely stop giving it to the child away your child is wanting it otherwise not only travel it is going to be difficult for you in the long run and when your child starts going to the school it is going to be a tough job for you to work over so teach your child how to do the phone stop giving pure food at all because this is just going to unnecessarily encourage your child to behave like this more and moreWrite Your Answer Here
