Parents often worry when their child does not eat as much as they think they should. Carlos Gonzalez reassures these fears through the presentation and analysis of the reasons why a child refuses to eat, the traps hidden in growth charts, and how a child's development and activity affect their caloric needs. He explains how food problems start and how we can avoid them. In 'My child does not eat', we read stories of mothers' anxiety and the difficulties they experienced when trying to force their child to eat. Carlos Gonzalez points out to parents that their child knows how much they need to eat and explains that their only concern should be to offer healthy food choices. Forcing a child to eat more than they need can only lead to crying, tantrums, and possibly obesity. The book answers, among others, the questions: Why doesn't my child eat? How much does my child need to eat? Why don't children like vegetables? What does demand breastfeeding mean? When should my child start eating solid foods?
