do you sit gethin at the table with you when you are eating? my little boy arlo will no longer sit at the table with us eating unless he has something in his hand. he objects very loudly if we forget to give him something.he puts everything to his mouth anyway as he is teething which is handy. Don't worry maybe try not giving him anything whilst you eat and see if this makes him want to try. i would just stop and when he's ready he'll let you know and there'll be no stopping him i'm sure. How old is he by the way?
