Terrible Twos?

So, Mini Beeker appears to have entered the TT territory...although he doesn't hit the full 24 months until April, there are definite signs. Lots of throwing, sudden outbursts of frustration and over the past few days we've had some interesting food battles. Not actual battles with shields of pitta bread and banana swords but refusal to eat or even taste foods.

From the little I have read so far, this seems to be reassuringly 'normal'. I can only hope!

The question is, whether to take the hard line, or to give in and hope that requests for cheese at every meal don't last until he is 14.

How much does a 20 month old actually understand? Is he testing our resolve or actually has gone off most foods for a few days/weeks?

Time, and the fridge contents, will tell...

BB.
