LittleVoices for Healthy ChoicesSummary The children who have learned to be comfortably dependent can become not only comfortable with having people depend on them. They can lean, or stand and be lean upon, because they know what a good feeling it can be to feel needed. Families have learned about their roles and responsibilities to enable them to reinforce healthy and nutritional patterns. It is the role of the informed adults to offer a variety of healthy foods and to create a calm and nurturing environment. A positive feeding relationship supports good nutrition, food acceptance, developmental eating skills, self-regulation of intake, and socialization.
