Question
Dear Bella,
I wish somewhere on this forum it explained a little bit more about you, who you are, what you do, etc.
Well, even without that information I will still ask my question.
I understand that the people we meet are holding up mirrors of ourselves. They are our best lesson teachers. I'm wondering about what my son is mirroring to me or teaching me. He and I struggle every day over what he eats. If it were left completely up to him, he'd eat nothing but junk. I'm not exaggerating about that. He won't have a piece of fruit. Everything has to be very processed and sugary or salty. He will go hungry rather than eat something slightly healthy. I've tried just not bringing those types of foods into the house but, he just goes hungry. The whole thing makes me absolutely crazy. I do not like doing battle with him. I sometimes just let him eat whatever he wants to so that we don't battle but then I feel so sad that he's not getting much nutrition. The whole thing makes me have knots in my stomach.
I don't want advice on what to feed him but would like your input on why he and I have come together in this lifetime and what this battle is really all about.
Thanks.
