Doctor's answer:
1. Parents should set an example. A child's eating habits are largely influenced by their parents. If everyone in the family doesn't have a habit of eating too much meat, I'm sure the child won't have this problem either. In our family, both Dou Dad and Dou Mom are the type who don't lack meat. Whatever Dou Mom cooks, Dou Dad always says it's delicious.2. Vary the behavior, don't repeat the same food for the child on the same day. At the same time, one type of food should be prepared in different ways to create different flavors. For example, with eggs, you can steam, fry, scramble, or boil them. With different methods, there's always a way the child dislikes, or their disliked tastes may change at different times.
