my little cousin (8yo) doesn’t almost anything - two or three bites of anything that’s not chocolate and he says “he’s full”

He is fine I guess but quite skinny. Is there any advice anyone can give - it’s like this will all foods, all meals every time from what I’ve seen. It’s not my responsibility but I still want to know what would help solve it. Ideas?

Awh he just doesn't like none chocolate that's adorable! I think getting him to try new flavors like salty and savory might make him think on more food choices, he must really like sweets, my sister is the same way

@NoahMuffian yep loves loves sugar - and he won’t even try more than a 32th bite of anything he doesn’t like. I think he thinks all food should be liked as much as chocolate and he’s not
willing to eat things he doesn’t love as opposed to like

Hmmm... have you asked your aunt and uncle about that?

@mayguy nope it’s a bit sensitive but I might

Do you want to put weight on him?

@Nevertooold I would like him to be fit- and I do worry he’ll get underweight or at least not the body he could have later if he kind of malnurishes himself
