I was dishing up the food on his plate at the stove and giving him his plate at the table. He would go many nights not eating anything at dinner. I started scaling back the amount of food on his plate, but that only helped calm him a little bit. Then I tried putting the food on the table in the dishes they were cooked in and allowed him to dish up his own food. His mealtime meltdowns completely stopped within a couple days! Now he likes me to dish his food up for him at the table, which I’ll gladly do to avoid the misery we were used to before! Thanks for the other tips, too. You never know what will help until you try, and sometimes it takes a LOT of trial and error 🙂
