Parent Talk

Each week, our Parents Council of experts takes your questions, gives advice and shares solutions.

Moms, dads, grandparents and the diverse families who make up our community will have a new resource for questions about local neighborhood schools, the best pediatricians, 24-hour pharmacies and the thousands of other issues that arise while raising children.

This week’s question is:

What are some suggestions for parents of children with picky palates to make them more adventurous eaters?

Judy Vincent

When my now-7-year-old was younger, she ate everything. Currently, she is picky. 

I've tried disguising food by hiding veggies into other foods, but that doesn't work for me. I've noticed that if I just eat really healthy foods myself, my daughter will try some of it.
