Almost 3 yo hitting and throwing major tantrums over food.
I am about to lose my mind over this issue. We have always been pretty laid back about food and mealtimes. Lately, DS will eat a little, and put some in a random spot and tell me it has to stay there. He NEVER comes back to eat it, but if I put it away or eat it so it won't go to waste, he throws an epic tantrum and acts like I just killed his puppy. He has smacked me across the face more than once over this.
Wasting food is not an option right now, we just can't afford it. Has anyone dealt with this and figured out a good solution?
