The new rule in our house, which apparently has worked wonders: It doesn’t matter what it is. You will eat half of every item on your plate. You will not gag, or make faces, or act like you will throw up. You will not say “I don’t like this”. Comments along the lines of “This is not my favorite because…” or “I think this is too spicy for me.” are acceptable, and will be used as guidance for future meals.
Now, unless a meal is a qualified disaster, he eats peacefully, at a reasonable speed, and without any rude commentary. Mealtime is a much happier time for me now.
