A lot of our kids are picky eaters.... ESPECIALLY if they are on GF/CF diet.
Well, don't give up.... There is a therapy called "Food Aversion Therapy".
Here @ Palmetto Health most of the Speech Pathologist are trained in it.
And my family Praises "Edie Hunt" , She is our miracle worker!!!
Foster used to not eat Chicken, ground beef, peas, carrots, corn, French toast sticks,Spaghetti, Turkey meat, hot dogs etc;
Thanks to Food Aversion therapy Foster can eat... it's amazing!!!
Here's the info :

Ask for your child to get" Food Aversion Therapy " list
If you don't live here ask your local Speech or OT... Who knows, they might can help.
Good LUCK!

School
Okay.... let's keep it real.... we need all the help we can get!!!
The school system, where our kids are in a structural environment.. is GREAT!!!
Getting Through an IEP meeting is another thing.....
Make sure you set HIGH goals... I mean you want your child to recieve ALL the help he can ...
So make goals that you want little Johnny to hold a conversation w/ another child for at least 3 minutes... typical kids can talk your ear off... so why shouldn't we want that.....
If there are certain wants your husband wants... for example,my husband want Foster to learn how to play soccer.. just contact w/ foot & ball... therapy goal. Ride a tri- cycle.... be able to ask your child Q's & have them answer you... not repeat you... ANSWER YOU!!!!
Any other thing you desire....
