Over the last month Ryan has made meal time so hard! He would throw a fit the minute you sat him in his highchair, and then would throw his food once it was in front of him. This happened at home, out to eat, dinner with family, anywhere.
Finally I had enough and just held him in my lap while we ate. He was totally fine. Then I sat him in the chair next to me. Immediately the boy was fine! He sat there the whole time and just ate. No problems. So we kept doing that at home, and even when we were out.
The result....problem solved. No more fits and throwing food! This is such a relief when we are in public. Not that we go out much, but he kept us for going out, period. Now I can enjoy my meal a little more and I don't have to deal with the out of control child. Ryan loves being a big boy. Who knew all he wanted was to sit with the rest of us. So glad I figured it out! Plus, he looks cute at the table since his head is barely over the table.
