It is important to have a conversation with the parents about their concerns and how their child's nutritional needs can be met according to the center's guidelines. It is possible that they are not aware of the guidelines or the specific nutritional needs of their child. By discussing the issue, a compromise can be reached that ensures the child's health and well-being. Reporting the family for neglect or ignoring the situation are not appropriate responses, and secretly giving the child extra food is dishonest and could cause trust issues with the parents.
