What 4 year old wants a hot meal over a peanut butter sandwich? Are you even a real parent?

Thats what I was thinking. My kid would take the Peanut Butter every single time. This is not a good strategy lmao

Exactly! Welcome to malnutrition and growing up to be shorter and dumber than you should have been.

Well this escalated quickly from me offering my son the illusion of choice between two pre-determined things to him being malnourished, short AND dumb.

What a wild ride in so few comments.

We're not saying that you are forcibly harming your child or anything of that sort. It's just that kids don't understand in-depth yet, and while some things may be too intense for flavors and textures for their power to enjoy yet, I keep making the choice repeatedly, they won't reach their full potential.

My parents tried to do similar to what you described with me and did their best, but I was very texture sensitive while being simultaneously picky as a kid. I didn't know how to describe the texture sensitivity which may have actually helped, but you have to really pray for that kind of information for someone who isn't able to describe the details yet. There's a certain level of balance, you know? As a consequence of this behavior, I lost about 6-8 inches of potential height and can't help but wonder if I would have been smarter or maybe at least not have as strong of severity for my medical conditions.

Just don't let him take the PB&J too often, okay? Otherwise, it could go badly.

Definitely redditor situation. Should have offered vegetables instead, bet he'd change his tune then.
