Suggest Ways To Develop Good Food Habits In A Child
my child is 2 and half yrs old. My wife takes min 1 and half hours to feed her rice. She finds it difficult to eat. Morning and night since she is not eating we are giving dosa. Even that she takes so much time to eat. We need to force her to eat. How can we improve? is there any other food that we can give her?

Hi, thanks for asking.
I can understand your concerns.
In my opinion you should not force her to eat. Just offer her food at meal times. If she does not eat then offer food at the next meal time. Do not force her to eat. I would also suggest you give finger foods to her which she can eat on her own.
I hope I have helped you
Thank you
