'You Have to F—ing Eat'

[meshaliuknits]

Shaggy narrated?! I know what I'm spending my evening hunting down.

[thejackpot]

Haha, this one doesn't resonate with me in the same way. I have shitty sleepers but awesome eaters.

[ijack]

On my preemie board (where a lot of us have kid with eating/weight issues) we term it "eat the motherfucking nugget!!!"

[decemberwedding07]

My nephew is the best sleeper ever, but such a picky eater. I know what I'm getting my sister!

Shhhhhhhheiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttt. Naomi won't eat certain things. NO. I don't like that. So, why then is your little ass over here picking food off of my plate. It's the same GOTDAYUM THING.

Three year old life exhausts me. I can't wait for age four. But then, she may still be the same at age four. Taylor was awesome at age four. It was most certainly my favorite age with her.

James is four and a good example of conversation in my house is:
"No. I don't like it."
"Have you ever tried it?"
"no."
"Then how do you know you don't like it?"
"Because I don't."

My eleven month old refuses to eat certain things just based on appearance.  I thought babies put everything in their mouths, but she flatly refused to try kiwi.  IT TASTES LIKE CANDY!

If it's a not a chicken nugget my kid is going to spit it in my hand. I wonder if that line is in there somewhere.

This weekend:

DS: I want a PB&J for lunch, please.
Me: Ok, here you go.
DS: But mama I don't LIIIIIIIIIKE it.
Me (silently): Then why the fuck did you ask for it if you're not going to eat it???!

I want this book.

There was a point where I just let BabyLiu pull food off my plate. It was less aggravating.

This is my kid except she would refuse to eat the sandwich because it's cut in rectangles instead of triangles. 

[pinkdutchtulips]

I'm getting this book .. while dd sleeps fantastically, she's the world's pickiest, fussiest eater that annoys her foodie mom to no end. hot dogs - no thanks, nuggets - no thanks, fruits & veggies ... EWWW !!!!

i thought she was only like this for me .. nope - she was the same at daycare. drove everyone nuts bc the ONLY thing she would eat was pasta (carbs) and we had to cut her back to ONE serving and then offer fruits/veggies if she wanted more.

if we're at a social event or something I don't even bother making shorti a plate anymore. I just put a little extra on my plate and put kid bite sided pieces around the edge of my plate closest to her knowing that she'll help herself regardless and it's simpler than wrestling with her to give me back my damned broccoli.

She's a little baby vulture. Yesterday she downed 3 scrambled eggs and half a banana for breakfast - which is enough food to fill my grown ass up - and when she saw me with my piece of toast she ran after me saying, "pweeeeeeese!" with her hands out and then opens her mouth like a MFing baby bird. You aren't hungry! I know you aren't hungry! stop trying to steal my food!

We must keep Shorti and BoyLiu from meeting. He is a black hole into which all food disappears. Together they would clear out all you can eat restaurants without a backwards glance. And yet he is in the first percentile for weight.

China buffet?  Mmmmm...

[FloFTW]

Dinnertime is the absolute worst part of my day. It is HORRIBLE. Even when we give them food we know they love, they won't fucking eat it. Every single day someone ends up crying. Every single day.

This resonates with me.

Love the name , Naomi. My 4 year old can be bipolar-sweet, listens well, etc, and then can turn into a psycho instantly. Luckily she's 85/90% great but the other 10/15, man.

Also yes, this book is going to make me lol. My 20 minth old has had two major tantrums b/c he wanted fruit for dinner rather than his meal. And tantrums way more crazy than bipolar big sister

[jln]

I need this. P is an awesome sleeper, but a really shitty eater. I swear I don't know how he survives on 2 grapes and half a piece of bread a day. But we still enjoy the Go the Fuck to Sleep book @smo gave us.

[origami]

My kids get up at 6am every day and are picky as fuck. I'll take these 2 books as well as "Put your fucking clothes on"

[nsl]

I will be buying this book. My kids were shitty sleepers until 12 months (and still wake up before 6:00 every morning) and have always been terrible eaters. I AM the target demographic for these parodies.

ETA: if memory serves, Samuel L. Jackson narrated the audio version of the first book.  H and I laughed so hard we cried the night I found that on the internet.
