Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 My daughter Olivia was diagnosed at age 2 with RSS and has done extremely well under Dr. Harbison's care. Obviously she has a poor appetite and needs a lot of prompting to eat. She just started all-day kindergarten this year and is not eating enough lunch (they send the leftovers home) and often will not eat the afternoon snack at school. Many times they have carrot sticks for snack (the school's trying to offer heathier food) and Olivia will not eat them. I have talked to the teachers about the importance of her eating and they promise me they will make sure she eats - but it is not happening. Unless your child has diabetes, the teachers never really take you seriously. Olivia comes home in a terrible mood complaining that she is hungry and has had some terrible meltdowns. She has also been moody and grumpy with friends at school. I know it is a food issue, because she really loves school and is very happy there. Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to loose any ground we have worked hard to gain. Thanks, Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
