Hi Dr Aarti, I had written earlier about my 2 year old son regarding his screaming which has now subsided so thanks for the advice then. Over the last year my son's not gained any weight and this largely has been contributed by his habit of NOT eating. We'v tried different tips and tricks but they don't seem to work anymore and we have to subject to the TV at times for meal times only. However lately TV or No TV he just isn't interested in eating anymore. Although we've tried a variety of items from sweet to savory to traditional home made food, he's moody and generally dismissive of anything presented to him (apart from French Toast at times). I do understand as he gets older and more conscious this won't be a problem but for now how do we as parents tackle this to ensure he's invested in eating?

Ans: You can make him feel the different texture and aromas of food. Let him taste it by pairing with his choice of food. The non preferred food can be in very little quantity as good as a size of grain initially.
I am glad my first strategy worked for you. You can try this too. I am sure it will work for your little one to get healthy food habits.

Health

Dear madam, my daughter is 1.5 years old, weight 9.3kg. Weight at the time of birth was 3.2kg. She is not on mother's feed. She does not find home food attractive and it takes a lot of effort for us to make her eat one meal in a day. We are trying everything possible. She hasn't started walking yet, only crawling. What could be done madam? Shall we start multivitamin?

Ans: Over dependence on bottle feeds could be the most likely reason. Reduce milk intake by offering milk in a cup or sipper. Offer different home cooked items when she asks for the bottle .She will need iron and vitamin supplements too.

Hello Doctor, my daughter Anaya, is 4 years old. She’s super active and cheerful, but I’ve noticed that she’s been a bit fussy with her eating. She used to love fruits and veggies, but now it’s a struggle to get her to eat anything that’s not plain rice or biscuits. I’m worried she’s not getting the nutrients she needs for her growth. Also, I’ve heard a lot of parents talk about giving kids multivitamins or supplements, but I’m unsure if that’s really necessary or just a trend. Can you help me understand if her eating habits are just a phase or if I should be concerned? What can I do to make sure she’s eating healthy without turning every meal into a battle? Thanks in advance

Ans: Donot offer processed stuff especially if sweet like biscuits as a food substitute. Be consistent with meal times and no snacks to be offered in between. This includes sweet drinks like juices too. Junk food to be allowed only once a week or two weeks of she has been eating a balanced diet through the week. So no chocolates on a daily basis. Once you do this, she will start getting hungry. Then only give her a balanced diet even if she resists. It doesn't matter if she eats less than what you think should be eaten.

Money

My loans have crossed 40 lakhs and i dont have job. I dont know what should i do as i do not have any money to pay back. I am taking loans to repay interest for old loans.

Ans: Hello;

Sell some of your asset like land, gold or vehicle to repay the loan on priority.

Don't borrow to repay existing loans. Restructure the loans or seek a moratorium till you get a job.

Borrow funds from family and friends explaining your mistakes and promise to repay once you get another job.

Keep in mind the old saying to cut your cloth as per your size and act accordingly.

Relationship

Hello, I am in relationship with a girl and she is started getting white patches. I am scared to marry her as it passes on genetically but at the same time I feel guilty of leaving her. I am so stuck in my life. What should I do?

Ans: It sounds like you’re facing a deep internal conflict - one between fear and love, between logic and emotion. And that’s completely human. Ask yourself - What are you truly afraid of? Is it the uncertainty of the future? The possibility of judgment? Or is it the weight of responsibility that love brings?
Relationships are rarely about guarantees. They’re about choices - choosing to stand by someone despite the unknowns, despite the imperfections. But the real question isn’t about her condition. It’s about you. What do you value more - certainty or connection? Fear or commitment? What kind of partner do you want to be, not just for her, but for yourself?
Because in the end, it’s not about genetics. It’s about who you choose to be when faced with uncertainty. So, who do you want to become?
Wishing you success,
