Have you ever thought of abusing your child? If you think you don't, then, it is high time you do, especially if not feeding your children with fish will most likely resemble to child abuse.
The fact that you don't like fish is not an excuse. You are old enough to know that if you don't eat fish now, sooner or later you will experience problems related to not eating fish, such as arthritis. But your child is different from you. He/she does not have the capacity to choose and to know what is good for him/her. And because you as parent know the possible consequences of not letting your child eat fish, it is so uncaring to deprive them of such right.
It's time to cut the crap. Come to think of it, it would be best if you will simply do something about it. That is, learn how to encourage your kids to eat fish.
I have four children and with them I have learned that kids live by example. They will eventually follow whatever they see in us. And these actions will have an impact as they grow up, even as teenagers.
Hence, it's best to start weaning them to fish eating at an early age and you can encourage them to do so by eating fish yourself. Okay, granted you don't want its fishy taste, but not because it is a fish but because of the way it was prepared or it is not fresh. But don't worry, here's some nippy fixes on these problems.
Fish is fish and it will never ever taste like pork or chicken. If that is how you want to put it. The way it will taste "fishy" would mean buying fish that are not fresh. Freshness can create a great impact on the fish taste. And so, it is important that you only buy the freshest fish in order for you to enjoy its taste.
Try several recipes in a fish cookbook. Do this until you and your family have found the right fish recipe.
People who were able to develop a liking for fish say that it's best to start with mild tasting fishes first. You can start with the grouper or sea bass and work your way to strong tasting fishes like salmon that has higher content of omega 3 fatty acids. Things will be easier if done this way.
Start it early. Start it right. You can start introducing fish to your children as young as 6 months old by giving them fish oil. You will soon be surprised that they are craving for more. And by the time that they get to eat out with you, they will order fish more.
For those who belong to the older age group, especially to those who have already created a preference for pizzas and potpies, encouraging them to eat fish may seem like a miracle. But you can still do something about it. Just stick with the tough love and be firm with what you will do. Follow the suggestions mentioned earlier and be firm on creating the menu. If it is fish, then stick to it. When they get hungry, they will eat.
To lengthen you children's lives and to put them in the pink of health, try these ideas. Studies show that aside from the many benefits that fish can give, it can also improve your child's mood and behavior. This is advantageous on your part too. Just be happy you have chosen to teach your kids to eat fish. Sooner or later, they will also appreciate what you have done. - 16955
