How many Mother's allow their kids to be picky...
M/C 10/18/10 9w2d...forever loved
First of all, you just shot yourself in the foot because your kid is going to be picky as hell. Good luck with that.
Second of all, you of all people are having the nerve to post about how great a mom you think you are going to be because you are going to just simply not allow your kid to be picky? Aren't you the same ignoramus who smokes while pregnant? Yeah that's what I thought.
I bet now you are going to tell me that you also cannot afford for your kid to be a picky eater, but yet you can afford your damn cigarettes THAT YOU STILL SMOKE WHILE BEING PREGNANT!
Pull your head out of your ass because it may help you to see what a moron you are being. There is no way in hell that I believe you love every damn food on the planet and would gladly eat it.
Do you like chopped liver? How about balut, would you eat that (it's a fermented fertilized duck embryo and yes, people eat it)? Haggis, would you eat some haggis if that's all you had? Yeah I didn't think so.

I think maybe on another site noone wanted to say what they really thought of this stupid post. Noone wanted to say how ignorant and judgemental the whole thing was and I guess noone here will protect your feelings while you said something like this. I cant see anyone with kids saying to a 2 year old sit at that table till you eat it all. Nope nothing else till you eat all of that. Thats crazy! Seems like you will be a perfect mom with a perfect kid who sits and does what is told and while eating everything on the plate will have the same issues as her mom. Guess learning from your own childhood and being forced to eat taught you nothing. Your loss.

I read What to expect when you are expecting page to page...guess what...the unexpected happened and my first, and to date, only child...came 3 weeks early even though I was *assured* first babies are late, and so it began....then he did not want to latch on and breastfeed...later when he did BF, he did not want bottles...EXCEPT the ones that cost me $6 a piece, not the (cheapies) I had bought. He did not sleep through the night until 13 months and now at 3 is back in our bed because he does not WANT to sleep in his room even as nice as it is.Then he only wanted homemade baby food, not jarred....then he did not drink milk...whole, skim, soy, flavored, powdered, sweetened....none...now, at 3, he only likes chicken and some fish, all be it drowned with ketchup, eats minimal veggies, and could live on bread and yogurt....this even though I cook 3 course dinners most nights...Moroccan, Italian, Chinese, all kinds. However, he used to love Moroccan tajines with chicken and peas. He hates pickles, how can that be when I love them so much. I pride myself on my cooking and the care I take in meals. I am allergic to shellfish and do not like certain foods but I still cook them and allow him to decide if he wants it, my dislikes do not have to be his. He has also had Honey Buns for breakfast. Pizza for dinner, and gets to drink Moroccan Mint tea and has also tried a sip of coffee and soda 
He would eat Spaghetti and Mac N Cheese every day if I let him, so I compromise and make it from scratch so I can incorporate veggies in the sauce or control the sodium content. Potty training....yeah....lets not go there. So How dare he not follow my master plan and rebel, throw tantrums that would give SuperNanny a run for her money and not be the model child even though I planned ahead, read all the self help books, did the right things, ate the right things, and followed all the OB and now Pediatricians rules...this is not the perfect little angel baby I was supposed to have...to HELL with that...he is mine and he is what he is partly because I allow it and also because is 3...not 30. If it hurts him and his well being, no way, but the 10 min extra I spend toasting him bread, peeling grapes and apples,or making him homemade mac and cheese is worth it to me. He is healthy and happy. There are daily struggles and a big part is my disappointment in myself but I will not force my child to clean his plate, gag over something he tries and does not like, or starve for meal after meal until he eats what is prepared. I am fortunate and was smart enough to wait so that myself and my husband had our education, good careers, a nice home, and have the option to provide extras for ourselves and for our son so he can be picky with his food,lwhile still realizing if it was all taken away we tomorrow we could handle it. You cant choose the kind of temperant, likes/dislikes,etc your child will have anymore than the next person. You can guide, inform, encourage, discipline, listen....that is what a parent does. I think your post was a bit premature as you have yet to experience any of these issues. Your post was not inquiring but accusatory and to use BS as a reasoning is childish and lacks support as to date I do not recall you mentioning beng an MD or having training to diagnose the documented medical issues the other posters children have. Good Luck with your perfect baby.

OH and by the way, I did find your post on Cafemom....um yeah...rebump it or relike the post and see what people have to say about it now...just sayin!
oh and make sure its posted in newcomers group, pregnancy, and the weightloss surgery groups...see what kind of response you get then. OH and not to forget to post it in the "moms with special needs children or family members"...
Make sure you have your "research" at the ready to post it to back your butt up.
Just a suggestion....
