My...Awww this sounds awful and so worrying for you. My little girl has allergies and whilst she's generally a good eater every now and again she will worry about food and ask if it will make her poorly. It's so hard to get the balance between keeping them healthy and scaring them right. Love the idea of a fairy picnic and hope it's the start of getting back to normal #MMBCAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13623115012998021273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797136949052460166.post-82054240368474545942016-03-21T09:19:12.135+00:002016-03-21T09:19:12.135+00:00Yes, exactly.

Children are very sensitive at all ages, and they take things which they hear literally. I know schools are talking to children about healthy eating, but it's a fine line when it comes to what to say and how to say it. I think you did a great job not getting angry and turning non eating MummyShirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11023854269710044691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797136949052460166.post-4068186587021066732016-03-20T20:14:32.071+00:002016-03-20T20:14:32.071+00:00What a concern.

There is a fine line when it comes to healthy eating and teenagers and you don't really know how the school approached the subject.<br /><br />I've always tried to teach my two about the importance of eating a balanced diet over a restrictive diet.

We had similar, but not so extreme, with my younger son when he was 7 or 8 because they had to keep a food diary at school :( He had to do it again a couple of weeks ago and was very secretive about it. I suspect he wasn't being honest in it. He doesn't eat that much anyway, so if he was leaving anything out it would like he really didn't eat enough.<br /SarahMummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103870858666628645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797136949052460166.post-51477114882284018522016-03-19T12:40:36.300+00:002016-03-19T12:40:36.300+00:00Oh gosh Kim, that must have been so worrying.
