Dear Lord you have just discribed my 3yr old at 24lbs to the "T"......she also 'chipmunks' the food or will take two bites and hide it between her front teeth & lip. She will also sit there all day without eating.

In my case I KNOW mom gives her kraft dinner & mcdonalds on command (sigh)

I've tried the whole 45min, you don't finish than you don't eat....hoping that they'll get the hint and be hungry enough to eat something...NOPE. Six months in and she hasn't changed.
