Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offered to them. A child rarely dislikes food 21 it is badly cooked.
The 22 a meal is cooked and served is most important and an attractively served meal will often improve a child's appetite. Never ask a child 23 he likes or dislikes a food and never 24 likes and dislikes in front of him or allow 25 else to do so. If you take it for granted that he likes everything, he probably will. Nothing healthful should be omitted from the meal because of a 26 dislike. At mealtime, it is a good 27 to give a child a small portion(一小部分) and let him come back for a second helping. Do not talk too much to the child during mealtimes, but let him eat his food, and do not 28 him to leave the table immediately after a meal, or he will 29 learn to swallow his food so he can hurry back to his toys. Under 30 circumstances must a child be coaxed(哄骗) or forced to eat.
