Video insights

@drdeborahparenting's TikTok video "You say, "This is dinner." Your child asks for pancakes. Then another adult says, "Just give them something they'll eat." Now your child has two different answers at the same table. You both want your child fed. But your child is learning that asking a different adult may produce a different result. Here's what to do instead. Decide how dinner works before everyone sits down. Serve the meal. When your child asks for something different, say: "This is dinner. You can choose what you want from your plate." Every adult gives that same answer. Keep the meal available through dinner and continue with the meal as planned. When dinner ends, clear the table. Serve food again at the next planned meal or snack. Now your child learns that dinner works the same way with everyone who feeds them. That is the Mealtime Structure OS.
