unfortunately there is no medicine for hunger. point two your child is healthy for her age. point three never force a child to eat. establish a routine timetable place the food in front of her three times a day in a neutral area like dining table without any distraction. and leave the place. after 15 minutes quietly remove the plate and walk away . dont give any food in between. encourage more physical activity. and try to have atleast one meal at night with all family members without the telivision
