Meat First In Tot's Feeding New York Padiatrician Helievs food Likes and Dislikes of Children Should Re Respected By FRANK CAREY WASHINGTON lAPi Believe it or not. ice cream ranks only No. 4 on the dietary hit parade of kids under five. Given a free choice of diet, says Dr. Harry Bakwin of the pediatrics department, New York University College of Medicine, yiung children rate foods in this order: Meat, butter, fruits, ice cream, milk. Their attitude toward vegetables "differs just as does adults," he says, and "raw vegetables are often preferred. Cereal is the food most- often refused and It may be safely omitted from the diet." Bakwin discusses ways and means of dealing with cases of "poor "appetite" In pre-school youngsters in the Journal of Padiatrics. One of his hot tips to parents; "There should be no insistence on this or that food. The food and dislikes of children g j should be respected just as in j adults."

"Parents should be urged to forget calories, vitamins and minerals and rely on the child's appetite. It is reasonable to assume that we were endowed with appetite for some purpose 'Bakwin told a reporter hi-meant by this that children if given their free choice of good wholesome foods, would be guidedby appetite to select an adequate balanced dieti. The doctor says poor appetite may stem from some deep-seated emotion disturbance or be .he aftermath of some acute OTHER CAUSES OF roou APPirriTE But, If your child is healthy and emotionally stable and still isn't eating much here art , some-other causes, together with !

During the first year of life, a child gains about 15 pounds, tripling its birth weight. But between one and five the child has an annual average weight gain of only about five pounds. Hence corresponding to the relatively slow weight gain, there's a smaller appetite. 2. A child may reluse to eat, even though hungry, just because he knows it will get his mother riled up. Bakwin warns against trying to force the child, or to bribe or reward him. Just put the food out, leave it there a reasonable length of time, then Te-move it without comment or show of emotion.
