Oppositional defiant syndrome
Hey guys,

My son didnt eat well when he was 16months. It was not oppositonal defiant syndrome simply a picky eater. I think the other dd's are fine. Oppositional defiant is a strong word for a small child ? He's still loves more playing than eating. It simply because they want to play play and sitting and eating is more of a chore to these kids.
