This rule seems to be designed to prevent the very problem that you're talking about.

I don't know, there is some of that element. But I have one kid who will basically eat anything I give him without complaining, and one that I have to beg and fight every night to even eat the 2 or 3 things he does like. They seem to be around the same things at school and home. They've both pretty much been like that since they were two. There are some kids that are a real challenge to get to eat anything with some nutritional value and he is so skinny that I get worried about him not eating anything.
