When a child is in infancy, because he does not have the ability to eat independently or has not developed a good dietary awareness, parents often need to feed his children.
This is understandable, but if parents use the wrong method to feed their children, it may lead to some adverse consequences.
Before, there was a neighbor Xiao Zheng in my hometown. After she had a child, she had no time to take care of the child due to work, so she asked her mother-in-law to take care of the child's daily life and three meals a day.
Originally, Xiao Zheng was quite relieved about her mother-in-law, because since she got married, her mother-in-law has always been very good to herself. After having children, her mother-in-law's concern for herself and the children has not decreased at all, so Xiao Zheng would hand over the child to her mother-in-law with confidence.
However, after a while, Xiao Zheng found that the child's diet gradually had some adverse problems, such as The child's frequent indigestion, abdominal distension and even vomiting , and his appetite was not very good.
When Xiao Zheng asked about her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law was also unaware of it, so Xiao Zheng and her mother-in-law took the child to the hospital.
After a doctor's examination, I found that the child was infected with Helicobacter pylori. After the subsequent inquiry, I realized that the real reason for the child's infection and discomfort symptoms was that the mother-in-law often liked to put food in her mouth and chew it to the child after it was chewed.
"Chinese-style feeding" destroys the spleen and stomach of children. Many parents are still kept in the dark and don't know that
"Chinese-style feeding" actually refers to the feeding methods used by some older parents. The reason for this method may be related to the living conditions of older parents back then, but these feeding methods are obviously no longer suitable for children today.
So, what are the typical behaviors of "Chinese-style feeding"?
chew the food and feed the child
Xiao Zheng's mother-in-law uses this way of feeding, which is also one of the ways that many older parents like to use. The formation of feeding methods such as
is actually related to the social situation in the past. At that time, people were generally busy, and there was no good way to break food, nor was there any ready-made baby supplementary food optional, etc.
Under various restrictions, parents grind the food by chewing and then feeding it to their children. This is a very convenient, fast and cost-effective way, saving time and effort can also achieve the purpose of breaking the food.
However, one thing that people at that time ignored was the hygiene of food. However, in that era, many people thought it was enough to eat enough, and they didn’t care whether the food was hygienic or not.
Compared with the past, people's living conditions have risen by more than one level. Nowadays, parents also pay great attention to their children's food health issues. feeding methods like this have been completely banned .
Because of this feeding method, it is likely that some pathogenic bacteria carried by adults will enter the child's body through food, thereby affecting the child's physical health.
Among them, the most common one is Helicobacter pylori infection, which may cause children to have various digestive problems and has a great impact on their health.
Frequently feeding children to eat
The way to feed children to eat is the product of the gradual improvement of living conditions for older parents.
Because the older parents have gone through an unforgettable era of famine. When food is abundant and every household can eat full, the older parents think that is a thing for fullness. is a thing for happy , and eating is a thing for fullness. is a thing worth , so "for the sake of the good of the child", I often like to chase and feed the child.
In other words, many parents will continue to chase the child to feed the child regardless of whether the child is full or not.
Although older parents use this method as kind-hearted, it will seriously damage the health of the children's stomach and intestines.
Because children eat too much regularly, it will increase the burden on the child's gastrointestinal tract, leading to a decrease in the digestive capacity of the child, and sometimes they will suffer from gastrointestinal diseases, etc.
"Chinese-style feeding" has many harms. How should parents "save" their children's stomachs?
The traditional feeding method makes the child's stomach and intestines overwhelm, but if you don't need it, parents don't know how to make their children have a good meal.
In fact, to solve this problem, just pay attention to these points:
First of all, letting children have a fixed place and time for dining
Eating regularly and in a fixed location is an important factor in helping children develop good eating habits.
Fixed time can make the child's biological clock rhythm. When it comes to eating, the child will naturally feel hungry, thus creating a greater appetite.
Fixed locations can allow children to form a dietary habit. When children often eat at a familiar place, the children will be more attentive every time they eat at a fixed location, because the child subconsciously feels that this is the place to eat, not the place to do other things.
Secondly, let children establish a sense of dining ritual
Many people have seen "Crayon Shin-chan". We will find that he always says "I started" before eating, which is actually a dining ritual.
Dining ceremony can help children quickly enter the dining state and let their children eat well, so parents can set up dining ceremony according to their actual situation.
In addition, when eating, parents should pay attention to maintaining their children's dining environment. Do not watch TV while eating, or do things that affect children's attention, such as playing with mobile phones, making noise, etc., but letting their children concentrate on eating.
Finally, prepare and teach the children to use exclusive tableware
The reason why some parents always like to feed their children is that they are worried that their children will get dirty clothes after eating, dining table , etc.
In fact, this is a must-pass path for children to grow up, so parents should give their children the right to eat independently, prepare their own tableware for their children, and teach them how to use tableware correctly for meals.
After children learn to use tableware, their dietary enthusiasm will increase a lot, because children will always be excited about their new abilities.
written at the end
Let us abandon the "Chinese-style feeding" and give the child a healthy spleen and stomach, so that the child can develop good eating habits, and thus grow up healthily.
