Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Allowing children to make some choices about the food they eat can help them develop good nutritional habits by giving them a sense of autonomy and the opportunity to try new and healthy foods on their own terms. Limiting the number of new foods or forcing children to finish all the food they are served may lead to negative associations with food or feelings of pressure, making it less likely that they will form positive habits around eating. Serving new foods at the end of the meal when the child is not hungry may also not be effective, as children may already be full or too distracted by the event of the meal ending to focus on trying new things.
