I don’t even think he’s fussy! She just needs to put some time in, cook a lovely simple risotto with peas leeks and parmesan (not microwaved frozen meals), something that actually tastes good, make sure he is ACTUALLY HUNGRY (not recently had watermelon, cheese and Alpro milk) and sit with him and EAT together! I understand some kids are fussy. But there is so much she could do now that will help him but she’s just insistent on blaming him!!
I think he is fussy, but only because they have made him that way. I understand kids naturally get fussier heading into toddlerhood and start to refuse foods they usually like, but poor Alf has never been given the opportunity to try new exciting foods or wholesome family meals as they have allowed him to live off his “favourite foods” for a year and a half and haven’t introduced new foods and persevered with them.I don’t even think he’s fussy!

This!Why does she always say Alfie is a bad sleeper when he has slept through the night since turning 1? I know he wakes up early but to sleep through every night (apart from when he’s unwell) is amazing!
I think it's mainly due to the fact that Ashley doesn't parent.It makes me really uncomfortable that Alf is constantly referred to as “delayed” or behind, and it’s just ridiculous to read people commenting how their child could say full haikus at 14 months or whatever. This kind of talk can actually make other parents feel bad when they needn’t. The milestone for 2 years is 50 words and he is well within that. I don’t know if anyone has been in a room full of 20 month olds but there is a huge range of what is normal and it’s all fine.

My little boy is 16 months and still wakes all nightThis!
I look after a 4yr old child who sleeps on the dot at 6.30/7pm and wakes at 5.30am, always sleeps through and has done since he was 2. Didn't change even then they moved his bedtime back, some kids just honestly have a set internal clock I'm sure of it.
I hope the next baby wakes every few hours (might be wishing bad karma on myself as I'm also pregnant but it'll give her something to really moan about)![]()
