You parents out there, how do you get your kids to eat vegetables?

they know to play you! lol

next they will tell you, you suck! lol

Eh crispy and wet...

Bribe them by farting in their vicinity if they did not eat them.

A belt

Jk

Chilli, pasta

Got get creative

Didn't do anything fancy, just did what my parents did and put food on the table which eeate and were grateful for. Doing the same thing now with the grandchildren. Worst mistake you can make is offer a choice, just cook and serve.

Don't cook them. Mine love them raw, even broccoli. Ranch dip too

How old? My daughter developed a taste for them as she got older. I didn’t really ever make her eat them if she didn’t like them.

My kids love frozen peas...they eat them like ice snacks

I had one boy that didn't like his vegetables until I cooked them on the grill, at that point it was manly to eat them.

Sounds like a first world problem.....

We did that too, but my daughter did the whole so many bites thing. I never thought that worked that well.

One thing we did was set out a plate of raw veggies with dip.
We would let them graze as much as they wanted. Works with my picky grands, too.

Yeah, I guess I need to go all drill instructor with them, like my dad did me.

You don't leave the table until you clean your plate.

That was old school

Eat what is provided or go to bed hungry

End of story

sorry OP, I have only ever raised dogs. But even raising a puppy you sometimes need to be an asshole. Kids and puppies don't get to do whatever they want to do. Eat the GOD DAMN vegetables.

I had one child that would just not eat...so I played tricks, he calls them lies lol

I would make salmon patties and call them pancakes...I'd let him put syrup on them...but eventually I got him to drink ensure...now he's 20 and skinny but very healthy...

Lol, thanks man.

We never presented them as an option
They were served with dinner and expected to be eaten.
Clearly if one made them gag, At least they tried them and I would substitute another kind the next time.
You don’t make a fuss they don’t make a fuss.
And try just a tablespoon size serving of something new, then it’s not so daunting for them to try it and finish it.
Parents are to set the tone - not the kids.

They eat or they go hungry. Pretty simple.
You should never give garbage food to a child anyway. They will grow up enjoying vegetables if they start off right.

That's what we're running into, and a lot of my friends are having the same problems.

We put broccoli in their grilled cheese and they haven't even noticed, lol.

We're getting creative here.

Plan B is always to cover them with cheese. Seriously.

Dips to make it fun. Ketchup, ranch, Italian dressing, vanilla yogurt. Kids like weird foods since they don't know cultural normalcy yet.

THEY'RE USELESS

dont force your kids to eat something they do not want

vegetables are not healthy, full of indigestible fiber and antinutrients

have them eat meat, eggs, milk, fruit if they pick it

children have a natural palate, dont distort it

VEGGIES BEING HEALHTY IS JUST DERANGED VEGAN PROPAGANDA

MILK, MEAT, EGGS AND BACON, THAT'S ALL THAT'S NEEDED

well then maybe at some point you can do a reveal of what's in the GC and tell them "See, you like that."

Well, keep in mind there's a difference between not trying food prepared for you, being rebellious, and just being full.


You can always put away the remainder of their plate in the fridge to eat later.

Never had ANY pickiness with my brood. They ate EVERYTHING.

Not sure how that happened. I never even thought about it when they were young. Just expected them to eat it all. Mealtimes were always fun, yes everyday...

I've seen kids picking up on parents' anxieties and kids that manipulate their parents through food refusal. You worry, they act out. Bugger that stupid game!

How many kids do you have sir?

I have 4.

One is in the army, and one is going into the air force.

Plus I have 2 younger ones.

I was just looking for ideas man, not hate.
