Turns out my toddler DOES like spaghetti, but only if it's MY spaghetti.

My toddler has been going through a incredibly picky phase. He’s been turning his nose up at foods he’s consistently eaten before, and…it’s been a struggle.

Recently, I made myself spaghetti for dinner. My partner had already coaxed our son into eating some eggs and fruit, and my son had shown no interest in spaghetti two days earlier, so I didn’t make any for him.

Turns out the toddler does like spaghetti, and is very insistent on eating it if he can eat it off my fork, out of my bowl, while I’m also trying to eat from the same bowl. If I give up, give him the whole bowl and look for something else? Nah. Then it’s no good anymore apparently.

Why are toddlers like this?
