Hi all! I have this dcb that started with me last month because his old daycare provider was moving. He is almost 4 and a sweet, very quiet little boy. He is no trouble at all, except for lunch time. Anything and everything I give him, there is something wrong with it. But he will not tell me. Instead, he will eat slowly at first, then stop and just stare at his plate. I will ask him what is wrong and he just breaks down into tears crying saying that he does not like it. Here is an example of things that he has cried at: toast, soup, brussel sprouts, corn, yogurt, grapes, turkey, yam, peas, pasta...pretty much anything.

I have mentioned it both to him mother and father on separate occasions and both have said that he does not like to try new things, but want I am giving him is fine.

I do not know if I should get a list of things that his old provider fed him/things that he actually eats, or continue to try to expose him to these "new" foods, but in smaller portions, because I end up throwing so much out.
