Question
My daughter is 6 years old and has a particular penchant for eating, a large appetite, and a strong craving. She often sneaks food and eats it alone. She also loves to cry, using tears to solve problems when things don’t go her way. Her psychological resilience is poor, and she has difficulty concentrating. How can I help her break these bad habits?
Answer
It’s important to help a girl break the habit of gluttony. Regular mealtime is one of the keys. Irregular family meals are one of the reasons for a child’s gluttony. If meals are scheduled at regular times and the whole family eats together, it can help children develop good eating habits and prevent them from overeating. At 6 years old, children should have some self-control. Therefore, if she throws a tantrum, in addition to being gentle and persistent, it is recommended to use a more direct approach of cold treatment.
