    I have all my kids restrained in high chairs or boosters so nobody can get up or touch anyone else. They all have cups with lids. I have one kid that throws food the minute I turn my back .... I take him out if his high hair and make him pick it up then he goes back in his high chair and I take all the food away and he has to just sit there and watch. You need to use your firm voice and mean face. If you serve a treat at the end of the meal the offending kid(s) wouldn't get it .... If you don't serve a treat then I would start even if it just a special cracker or an extra fruit if a child has misbehaved they don't get it

    Crayola said it perfectly. Everybody's in boosters, cups with lids, firm voice and mean face, they lose the food if they throw it, no dessert/treat for the offender, etc. No nonsense at meal time.
