Anti food with a huge attitude
Anyone else have a toddler who suddenly grew into a food hating, tantrum throwing asshole?
This kid wants nothing but fruit snacks and sweets. I refuse to give her more than one a day. Problem is she barely eats anything else. Every meal gets about 3 bites it seems lately. She is 2 and her new brother is almost 2 months now. I figured this new found attitude would slow down as time went by with all the changes happening but this girl is driving me nuts. She has an opinion about everything and constantly wants to test me patience. Lol. I love her and keep my cool for the most part but please tell me this is just a phase.

My son will be 2 in June and we’re going through similar. Constant attitude and tantrums over not getting what he wants. No longer wanting to eat foods he used to eat. Only wants snacks. It sucks. It’s hard and he’s also driving me nuts haha. I feel like it’ll be a while before we get through it but we will eventually. I just try to redirect as much as possible when he’s having his fits. Part of me also thinks it’s because he’s getting his 2 year molars. He’s usually a different child in my opinion when he’s teething.

My toddler is just about to turn 2 and I am experiencing the same thing. He only eats like 1 or 2 bites if I'm lucky. He is definitely trying to push limits with everything right now. Everyone tells me it's a phase and he'll grow out of it, but that doesn't make it easier. I don't have any advice, but you are not alone!
